The Trumpeter Of Saekkingen
DER TROMPETER VON SAeKKINGEN. In three acts with a prelude by VICTOR NESSLER. Text by RUDOLF BUNGE after SCHEFFEL'S poem. Seldom in our days is an opera such a complete success in all German theatres, as this composition of Nessler's has...
The Two Grenadiers
In three acts by ALBERT LORTZING. Text adapted from the French. After a long interval of quiet Lortzing's charming music seems to be brought to honor again and no wonder.--The ears of the public grow overtired, or may we say over-taxed by ...
The Two Peters
CZAR AND ZIMMERMANN In three acts by LORTZING. This charming little opera had even more success than Lortzing's other compositions; it is a popular opera in the best sense of the word. Lortzing ought to have made his fortune by it, for it...
The Vampire
In two acts by HEINRICH MARSCHNER. Text by W. A. WOHLBRUeCK. This opera had long fallen into oblivion, when Hofrath Schuch of Dresden was struck with the happy idea of resuscitating it. And indeed its music well deserves to be heard. It ...
The Walkyrie
First day of the Nibelungen Ring by WAGNER. In the first scene we are introduced into the dwelling of a mighty warrior, Hunding, in whose house Siegmund, a son of Wotan and of a mortal woman, has sought refuge, without knowing that it is the ab...
Tosca
In three acts by V. SARDOU, L. ILLICA and G. GIACOSA. Music by GIACOMO PUCCINI. The libretto of this opera is adapted from Sardou's tragedy of the same name; it possesses all the exquisite stage effects of which this writer is capable. It...
Tristan And Isolda
In three acts by RICHARD WAGNER. The music to this drama is deemed by connoisseurs the most perfect ever written by Wagner, but it needs a fine and highly cultivated understanding of music to take in all its beauty and greatness. There is l...
Undine
In four acts by ALBERT LORTZING. Text after FOUQUE'S tale. With this opera Lortzing for the first time tried his genius in another field. Until then he had only composed comic operas, which had met with a very fair measure of success, but...
Urvasi
In three acts by WILHELM KIENZL. Text after the Indian legend of KALIDASA. This opera is so brilliantly supplemented by decorations and poetic enchantment of every kind, that it would be worth while to see those triumphs of modern machiner...
Wedding's Morning
HOCHZEITSMORGEN In one act by KARL VON KASKEL. Text by FRANZ KOPPEL-ELLFELD. This opera, which was represented for the first time at the Royal Opera in Dresden on April 29th, 1893, is the first attempt of its young composer, and as such...
Werther
In three Acts by J. MASSENET. Text from GOETHE by BLAU, MILLIET and HARTMANN. German Translation by MAX KALBECK. The subject of this opera is Goethe's famous novel of the same name. Though the text is not to be compared with that of t...
Will O' The Wisp
In one act by KARL GRAMANN IRRLICHT Text by KURT GEUCKE. With "Irrlicht" the composer takes a step towards verisme; both, subject and music are terribly realistic, though without the last shade of triviality. The music is often of bril...
Zampa
In three acts by HEROLD. Text by MELLESVILLE. This opera has met with great success both in France and elsewhere; it is a favorite of the public, though not free from imitating other musicians, particularly Auber and Rossini. The style of...
