Which opera had more acts, Das Liebesverbot or Lucia di Lammermoor?
Das Liebesverbot Das Liebesverbot ("The Ban on Love", WWV 38), is an early opera in two acts by Richard Wagner, with the libretto written by the composer after Shakespeare's "Measure for Measure". Described as a "Große komische Oper ", it was composed in 1834, and Wagner conducted the premiere in 1836 at Magdeburg. Poorly attended and with a lead singer who forgot the words and had to improvise, it was a resounding flop and its second performance had to be cancelled after a fist-fight between the prima donna's husband and the lead tenor broke out backstage before the curtain had even risen; only three people were in the audience. It was never performed again in Wagner's lifetime.
Sieg der Schönheit Gensericus oder Sieg der Schönheit TVWV 21:10 (Hamburg 1722 and Braunschweig) is a comic German-language opera in three acts by Georg Philipp Telemann. It was performed at the Oper am Gänsemarkt, while Keiser was director. Unlike "Orpheus" and "Flavius Bertaridus", the opera contains no Italian-language set piece arias. The librettist was Christian Heinrich Postel.
