Hermann Goetz (1840-1876) is one of those composers whom Fate has ill-treated. Though not a genius of the first rank, he had a very remarkable and individual talent and by no means deserves the oblivion that has overtaken his works. His Symphony in F is a fine work, but his masterpiece is The Taming of the Shrew, one of the best German comic operas of the last century. It was produced in Germany in 1874, and at Drury Lane in 1878. It was revived in 1880 by the Carl Rosa Company, with the famous Minnie Hauk as Katherine.
