Talk:Joachim Raff
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is a mistake in this article. Symphony No. 3 is the "In the Forest," Symphony No. 5 is the "Lenore," and Symphony No. 1 is "To the Fatherland," or in German, "An das Vaterland."

Could someone help? --Missmarple 20:47, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
- The first few, anyway- The Tempest, Othello, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet concert overtures. Recently recorded- for W A Albert for cpo?
- Operas- King Alfred, Samson, Dame Kobold (a Calderon play- hrm, libretto by Paul Reber after Calderon rather also turned into an opera by Felix Weingartner, and the subject of an overture of Reinecke), Benedetto Marcello, can't help you with the other two. Ok- true, I'm not sure what a heroische Oper is either, though- never heard of a heroic opera- but seems it would be a common enough term. Will ask someone... (not a tragedy, nor a comedy, nor a lyric opera... hrm! a question. (Some information can be found at www.raff.org of course.) Ah! http://www.raff.org/cat_opra.htm has the information in English. Eifersuchtigen is the Jealous Ones, e.g., and the rest is translated as well. Schissel-nonLop! 18:40, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
