''Fennimore und Gerda'' (subtitled ''Two Episodes from the Life of Niels Lyhne in Eleven Pictures'') is a German-language opera with four interludes, by the English composer Frederick Delius. It is usually performed and recorded in English, as ''Fennimore and Gerda'' in a translation by Philip Heseltine. The German libretto, by the composer himself, is based on the novel ''Niels Lyhne'' by the Danish writer Jens Peter Jacobsen. In neither German nor English is the libretto highly regarded; rather, the work is considered an "orchestral opera," limited in its dramatic appeal but voluptuous and engaging in its instrumental texture.〔Boyd, p. 406, 408〕 Delius began writing ''Fennimore und Gerda'' in 1908; he finished in 1910, but the premiere, intended for the Cologne Opera, was delayed by the First World War and did not take place until 21 October 1919, and then at the Opernhaus in Frankfurt. It was the composer's last opera. The United States premiere of the work was staged by the Opera Theatre of Saint Louis in June 1981 with Kathryn Bouleyn as Fennimore and Kathryn Gamberoni as Gerda. ==Roles==
