 In 1859, Franz Liszt wrote an orchestral "Festmarsch nach Motiven von E. H. z. S-C-G", S.116, based on themes from "Diana von Solange" (E. H. z. S-C-G was short for Ernst Herzog zu Sachsen-Coburg-Gotha).It received a brief appearance at the Metropolitan Opera in New York City in 1891.The opera was one of three novelties introduced for the 1890–91 season by the Metropolitan's general manager, Edmund C. Stanton; the others were "Asrael" by Alberto Franchetti, which opened the season on November 26, and Antonio Smareglia's "Il vassallo di Szigeth".
