Lard__Paris"), 14 October 1894, Verdi signed off on his incomparable operatic career with the ensemble finale quoted here. Falstaff was premiered at La Scala Milan on 9 February 1893; composed when he was nearly eighty, it is considered by many to be his most perfect operatic achievement. This is the theme of the opera's fugal finale, which is begun by the eponymous comic hero. Ernest Reyer's two-act opera Érostrate was written for Baden-Baden in 1862; he had taken over running the summer opera season there from Berlioz.
