What nationality was the composer of the opera Lulu ?
Lulu (opera) Lulu (composed from 1929–1935, premièred incomplete in 1937 and complete in 1979) is an opera in three acts by Alban Berg. The German-language libretto was adapted by Berg himself from Frank Wedekind's two "Lulu" plays, "Erdgeist" ("Earth Spirit", 1895) and "Die Büchse der Pandora" ("Pandora's Box", 1904). Berg died before completing the third and final act, and in the following decades, the opera was typically performed incomplete. Since its publication in 1979, however, the Friedrich Cerha orchestration has become popular. Theodor W. Adorno wrote "The opera "Lulu" is one of those works that reveals the extent of its quality the longer and more deeply one immerses oneself in it."
Veneen luominen Veneen luominen ("The Building of the Boat") is an unfinished composition by Jean Sibelius. The work was intended to be a grand opera, in the style of Richard Wagner's "Der Ring des Nibelungen", but was never completed, as Sibelius became disenchanted with Wagner's compositional techniques.
