Background: Alfonso und Estrella has the characteristic climate of a romantische Oper. If it is true that Schubert lacks the sense of theatre which is typical of the best operatic composers of his day, the power of his creativity and beauty of many arias cannot be denied.

Most of Schubert's operas were written without a specific commission, in the hope that some theatre might find them interesting. This unrealistic optimism proved almost always wrong and Schubert suffered bitter disappointments. Alfonso und Estrella was completed in 1822 but not staged until 1854, after Schubert's death.
