Composer
Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari
| 1876-1948Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari was born in Venice in 1876. He studied in Rome (1891–92) and Munich (1892–95), where he was a pupil of Joseph Rheinberger. In Munich, he celebrated his greatest successes in the years before the outbreak of the First World War, mainly with his compositions of comic operas. After the First World War, he was unable to build on his pre-war successes, perhaps because his music, written in a late or post-Romantic style, had no connection to the contemporary musical language of modernism.
