Michael William Balfe was one of the best-known European musicians of his time. Born into a Dublin theatrical family in 1808, he trained as a musician in London and Paris. On Rossini's recommendation, he went to Italy, where at the age of 26 he sang Jago in Verdi's "Otello" at the Milan Scala for the first time. As a violinist, opera singer, conductor and composer, he worked throughout Europe. The most famous work of his 28 works for the operatic stage - "The Bohemian Girl" - celebrated triumphs even in the USA. Today, Balfe is considered the outstanding Irish opera composer of the 19th century, a late representative of bel canto, strongly influenced by his idol Rossini, from whose influence he increasingly broke away over time.

Balfe's opera "Falstaff" premiered in London in 1838 at the Royal Theater with an all-star cast; it was therefore created exactly 55 years before Giuseppe Verdi's version. Like them, it is based on the Shakespearean comedy "The Merry Wives of Windsor": Sir John Falstaff considers himself the irresistible crush of all women and falls into the trap of the angry female population of the town of Windsor because of his unshakable vanity. The work can be seen in Annaberg-Buchholz as a German premiere.

Michael William Balfe gehörte zu den bekanntesten europäischen Musiker_innen- Persönlichkeiten seiner Zeit. 1808 in eine Dubliner Theaterfamilie hineingeboren, wurde er in London und Paris zum Musiker ausgebildet. Auf Empfehlung Rossinis ging er nach Italien, wo er mit 26 Jahren zum ersten Mal den Jago in Verdis „Otello“ an der Mailänder Scala sang. Als Geiger, Opernsänger, Dirigent und Komponist wirkte er in ganz Europa. Das berühmteste Werk seiner 28 Arbeiten für die Opernbühne – „The Bohemian Girl“ – feierte sogar in den USA Triumphe. Balfe gilt heute als der herausragende irische Opernkomponist des 19. Jahrhunderts, ein später Vertreter des Belcanto, stark geprägt von seinem Idol Rossini, von dessen Einfluss er sich mit der Zeit immer mehr löste.

Balfes Oper „Falstaff“ wurde 1838 in London im königlichen Theater mit einer Starbesetzung uraufgeführt; sie ist also exakt 55 Jahre vor Giuseppe Verdis Version entstanden. Wie diese fußt sie auf der Shakespeare-Komödie „Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor“: Sir John Falstaff hält sich für den unwiderstehlichen Schwarm aller Frauen und gerät wegen seiner unerschütterlichen Eitelkeit in die Falle der erbosten weiblichen Bevölkerung des Städtchens Windsor. Das Werk ist in Annaberg-Buchholz als deutsche Erstaufführung zu sehen.
