Peter Igelhoff - Barnabas von Geczy - Der Onkel Doktor hat gesagt

Peter Igelhoff (born Rudolf August Ordnung, 22 July 1904 in Vienna 8 April 1978 in Bad Reichenhall) was an Austrian pianist, light music and film composer, arranger and entertainer; he took his mother's maiden name as soon as he resolved on a career in light entertainment. His music was too American for the National Socialists and was banned.

Barnabas von Géczy
b: March 4, 1897, Budapest, Hungary. d: July 2, 1971, Muenchen, Germany
Instrument: Violin.
Barnabas Von Géczy [1897-1971] was born in Hungary although his family originally came from Venice. After the First World War his father was appointed concert master at Budapest Opera a post he held for 22 years but Barnabas decided to try his luck in Berlin where in 1924 he obtained his first resident engagement at the Weinhaus Traube. From 1925 to 1937 he led the Hotel Esplanade house orchestra, and during this period he made numerous broadcasts and recordings and undertook frequent tours. He became one of the best-known hotel ensembles in Germany and gained an international reputation. After the Second World War he decided to relocate to the Munich area, where in 1952 he formed a new orchestra.

I have put these two versions together as they are so different.

@FunkJood

It is originally dated 1938 but this may be a later re-recording.
