High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Svanda the Bagpiper, written in 1926, is an opera in two acts (five scenes), with music by Jaromir Weinberger to a Czech libretto by Milos Kares, based on the story Strakonicky dudak aneb Hody divych zen by Josef Kajetan Tyl. Its first performance was in Prague at the Czech National Opera on 27 April 1927. It premiered in German, with the translation by Max Brod, at Breslau on 16 December 1928.At the time, the opera, with its use of Czech folk material, enjoyed considerable success, with translations into 17 languages. Since that time, the opera has fallen from the repertory, although in orchestral performances and recordings, the "Polka and Fugue" now together form a concert work that is heard more often than the opera itself.
