Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari was born in Venice in 1876, and studied in Germany under Rheinberger. From 1902 to 1912 he was Director of the School of Benedetto Marcello in Venice, and produced many eighteenth-century operas there. The influence of the style of that period is evident in several of his own works.
