Recent Performance History
Anna Amalia's setting had no modern revival until a staged performance by students of the University of Cambridge, UK, in 1999. A further performance was given 29 February 2008 in Central Hall, Melbourne, Australia. This was the first performance of the fully restored score by FuroreVerlag. This was followed by a production at the Ekhof Festival in Gotha in the summer of 2009.

Famous quotes containing the words performance and/or history:
“The child to be concerned about is the one who is actively unhappy, [in school].... In the long run, a child’s emotional development has a far greater impact on his life than his school performance or the curriculum’s richness, so it is wise to do everything possible to change a situation in which a child is suffering excessively.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
“Yet poetry, though the last and finest result, is a natural fruit. As naturally as the oak bears an acorn, and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. It is the chief and most memorable success, for history is but a prose narrative of poetic deeds.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
