Palestrina : [musikalische Legende in drei Akten] by Hans Pfitzner( )

22 editions published between 1990 and 2009 in 3 languages and held by 624 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Die Oper Palestrina schildert, wie der italienische Komponist seine Schaffenslust wiederfand, die er nach dem Tod seiner Frau verloren hatte. Zum Gedenken an Papst Marcellus II, der 1555 nach nur 3-wöchiger Regierungszeit starb, komponierte Palestrina seine Missa Papae Marcelli, die die Kirche mit dem Kontrapunkt versöhnt haben soll. Hans Pfitzner schrieb seine Oper als Allegorie des einsamen Künstlers inmitten der Gesellschaft. Dabei gibt es auffällige Parallelen zwischen Palestrina als Retter des Kontrapunktes und Pfitzner als Bewahrer der deutschen Kunst
Semele by George Frideric Handel( )

"Semele (HWV 58) is a 'musical drama' in three parts by George Frideric Handel. The story comes from Ovid's Metamorphoses and concerns Semele, mother of Bacchus. Handel also referred to the work as 'The Story of Semele'. The work is classified as a 'musical drama', but it does fuse elements of opera, oratorio and classical drama, which anticipates the grand operas of the nineteenth century...Neither is it opera due to the large number of choruses..."--https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semele_(Handel)
