Béla Zerkovitz was a leading popular song composer in pre-war Hungary. Many of his early hits were made popular due to their inclusion in stage comedies; he went on to write over 70 operettas. His music has remained popular in Hungary, surviving during the Communist Era, as shown by the current collection, and still appearing on recordings to this day.
