Sachs

"Palestrina is also the title of an opera by Sachs (1886)" Can anyone verify this and identify this composer? It seems like this might shed light on footnote 7: "A photograph in Volume I of The Record of Singing shows the East Prussian tenor Felix Senius (1868-1913) in the title-role Palestrina. The first public performance was indeed in 1917, yet Senius died in 1913, so Erb was the first to perform the part. M. Scott, The Record of Singing, I (Duckworth, London 1977), pp. 204-205, Fig 179."

I have just found some record of this. I created a very stubbish article on Johann Sachs which has a link to some pages mentioning it.—Kan8eDie (talk) 11:59, 12 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
Kan8eDie: Please make Johann Sachs into a proper article, OK? One sentence pages are not very useful for our readers. --Kleinzach 00:23, 13 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
