Are Lulu and Destiny both three-act operas?
Destiny (Janáček) Destiny (also known as "Fate", Czech: "Osud" ) is an opera in three acts by Leoš Janáček to a Czech libretto by the composer and Fedora Bartošová. Janáček began the work in 1903 and completed it in 1907. The inspiration for the opera came from a visit by Janáček in the summer of 1903, after the death of his daughter Olga, to the spa at Luhačovice. There, Janáček met Kamila Urválková, who had been the subject of an opera by Ludvík Čelanský, "Kamila", where she felt that Čelanský had falsely depicted her personality. After learning that Janáček was a composer, Urválková persuaded Janáček to write another opera to counteract Čelanský's portrait of her.
Káťa Kabanová Káťa Kabanová (also known in various spellings including "Katia", "Katja", "Katya", and "Kabanowa") is an opera in three acts, with music by Leoš Janáček to a libretto by , based on "The Storm", a play by Alexander Ostrovsky. The opera was also largely inspired by Janáček's love for Kamila Stösslová. This is often considered his first "mature" opera, despite the fact that he was 67 when it was premiered. "Káťa Kabanová" is a clear response to Janáček's feelings for Kamila, and the work is dedicated to her. The first performance was at the National Theatre (Národní divadlo v Brně ) in Brno on 23 November 1921.
