Abstract
In the decade 1912-22, the rising stars of Gernan opera were both Austrians: Franz Schreker, born in 1878, and the very young Erich Korngold, born in 1897. It is Christopher Hailey's new biographical study of Schreker which prompts this essay. I shall be looking here at a group of works that belong to the dying years of the "Italian Renaissance" or "Renaissanceism" boom on the German stage, a fashion dating back to the 1870s.
