Google Translate: In 1922, the opera The Dwarf by Alexander Zemlinsky premiered. The libretto goes back to an art fairy tale by Oscar Wilde, The Birthday of the Infanta. A humpbacked dwarf is a gift to the Spanish Infanta on her birthday. The young man falls in love with her, but is only ridiculed by her. Finally, he dies of a broken heart. The same fairy tale inspired the composer Franz Schreker. He processed the material between 1905 and 1927 to a suite for chamber orchestra, a suite for orchestra and a pantomime.
