Nicolai: Allgemeiner Tanz und Chor

Informatie

Otto Nicolai's last opera 'Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor is the only one left and also his only one in German language. It is still one of the most performed opera's in Germany opera houses. The libretto was, like Verdi's famous Falstaff, based on Shakespeare's comedy The merry Wives of Windsor. The chorus 'Fass ihn Geister...'… is sung at the very end of the opera.
