The Land of Smiles (German: Das Land des Lächelns) is a romantic operetta in three acts by Franz Lehár. The performance time is about 100 minutes. This was one of Lehár's later works, and has a bittersweet ending which the Viennese loved. The title refers to the supposed Chinese custom of smiling, whatever happens in life.
Sung in English, this version of Lehar's operetta has special appeal in the United States, and the fact that it is fit onto a single CD is also an attractive feature. Jerry Hadley's performance as the Prince isn't as impressive as Gedda's, but Bonynge's conducting brings out the lush beauty of the score in full. Das Land des Lächelns (The Land of Smiles), operetta in 3 acts (revision of "Die gelbe Jacke").

Lehár is remembered for his sterling score: The Merry Widow. Although always regarded as a light-weight composer, he introduced a new wave of operetta and may be regarded as one of the fathers of the ‘Musicals’. Putting the Merry Widow aside, Lehár came to fame with The Count of Luxembourg in 1909 and when a series of romantic operettas followed. In 1923 The Yellow Jacket (Die gelbe Jacke) was given a Chinese setting and it told a story of an oriental prince and a Viennese woman. Despite its spectacular staging the production was only moderately successful with around 100 performances.
