Empress Elisabeth of Austria , better known as Sisi , led a fascinating life marked by external constraints and internal struggles. Born in Munich in 1837, she became empress through her marriage to Emperor Franz Joseph I. Despite the ups and downs of her marriage, she gave birth to four children.

Sisi's extraordinary beauty and distinctive style of dress made her famous, as did her longing for freedom, which led her to travel extensively throughout Europe – she felt a particularly close connection to Hungary.

Her relationships with the influential men in her life, especially Emperor Franz Joseph I and Count Gyula Andrássy, played an important role.

Otto M. Schwarz 's composition focuses on Sisi's freedom-loving nature and her loved ones, incorporating short musical motifs from her era.
