[[Otto Büchstein]]’s obscure tragicomic opera ''[[La Vittoria della Forma sulla Sostanza]]''<ref>“[[The Victory of Form over Substance]]”</ref> is an obscure and now largely forgotten portent of the forthcoming mechanization of the enlightened world. It was hampered on premiere by what theatre-goers found to be a plainly fantastical plot, but more critically was wounded by a brace of especially turgid arias either side of the interval.
