Did you know? To the surprise of many, Ludwig van Beethoven only composed one opera in his lifetime. His work on “Fidelio” began in the year of 1804 and was followed by its premiere in 1805. What was so strange about his opera is that its revision continued on for nine years after its original premiere. The different versions of the story all tell the similar story of a woman who disguised herself as a male prison guard in order to rescue her imprisoned husband. As Beethoven only had one opera, not many are shocked by the idea that he put so much effort into ensuring its perfection.
