Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari

Son of an Italian mother and German father, Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari was born in Venice on 12 January 1876 and died there on 21 January 1948. Study in Munich set him on course as a composer, and he returned to Venice in 1899. He became adept at lightweight opera, some of it first produced in Germany.
