In 1959 Rolf Liebermann's Opera semiseria had its last new production. At that time, the Oldenburg audience resisted the fraternization drama between a German Wehrmacht soldier and a young French woman just as there had been protests at previous productions: post-war Germany was not ready for such a piece.
