Fidelio Based on the Opera by Ludwig Van Beethoven
This is the only opera completed by Beethoven; it praises the love of a devoted woman. Unable to attain this in his lifetime, he never disparaged his goal. This story, unknown to the composer, happened in his lifetime so the scenario depicted in this book could easily have happened. Love, for once in opera, triumphs.
