- Note
- "Undine is an opera, with spoken dialogue, in three acts by the German composer and author E. T. A. Hoffmann. The libretto, by Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué, is based on his own story Undine. It received its premiere at the Königliches Schauspielhaus, Berlin, on 3 August 1816. Undine was Hoffmann´s greatest operatic success and a major influence on the development of German Romantic opera.
Carl Maria von Weber´s enthusiastic review of the opera admired it as "an art work complete in itself, in which partial contributions of the related and collaborating arts blend together, disappear, and, in disappearing, somehow form a new world"." - (en.wikipedia.org 09.01.2021)
