Lulu (composed from 1929–1935, premièred incomplete in 1937 and complete in 1979) is an opera in three acts by Alban Berg.
 The German-language libretto was adapted by Berg himself from Frank Wedekind's two "Lulu" plays, "Erdgeist" ("Earth Spirit", 1895) and "Die Büchse der Pandora" ("Pandora's Box", 1904).
 Berg died before completing the third and final act, and in the following decades, the opera was typically performed incomplete.
 Since its publication in 1979, however, the Friedrich Cerha orchestration has become popular.
 Theodor W. Adorno wrote "The opera "Lulu" is one of those works that reveals the extent of its quality the longer and more deeply one immerses oneself in it."
Valerie Spencer is a fictional character from "General Hospital", an American soap opera on the ABC network, portrayed by Brytni Sarpy.
 Introduced as the niece of the legendary Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary), Valerie is the daughter of the late Pat Spencer (Dee Wallace).
 Upon losing her mother, Valerie relocates to Port Charles and moves in with her cousin, Lulu Spencer (Emme Rylan), and bonds with her husband Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna).
 The two end up having a one-night stand, only for Dante to reconcile with Lulu and Valerie briefly dates Lulu's ex-boyfriend Dillon Quartermaine (Robert Palmer Watkins).
Earth Spirit (1895) ("Erdgeist") is a play by the German dramatist Frank Wedekind.
 It forms the first part of his pairing of 'Lulu' plays; the second is "Pandora's Box" (1904), both depicting a society "riven by the demands of lust and greed".
 In German folklore an "erdgeist" is a gnome, first described in Goethe's "Faust" (1808).
 Together with "Pandora's Box", Wedekind's play formed the basis for the silent film "Pandora's Box" (1929) starring Louise Brooks and the opera "Lulu" by Alban Berg (1935, premiered posthumously in 1937).
Anna von Mildenburg (November 29, 1872 – January 27, 1947) was an eminent Wagnerian soprano of Austrian nationality.
 Known as Anna Bahr-Mildenburg after her 1909 marriage, she had been a protégé of the composer/conductor Gustav Mahler during his musical directorship at the Hamburg State Opera.
 In 1898, Mahler took her to the Vienna Opera, where she established herself as one of the great stars during his celebrated tenure there as music director.

 He is also on record singing the role of Alberich at Bayreuth.
 His memorable Beckmesser in Wagner's "Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg" with the Hamburg State Opera has been preserved and is available on DVD.
 This performance is evidence of Blankenheim's charismatic stage presence and acting gifts.
