Fernando

Operetta by Franz Schubert (libretto by A Stadler), composed in 1815 but never performed in Schubert's lifetime; it was first produced in Magdeburg, Germany, on 18 August 1918 (the first concert performance was given in Vienna, Austria, in 1905). The story concerns Fernando who is rescued from a life as a hermit after killing his brother-in-law.
