Question: Are Arnold Schoenberg and Gian Carlo Menotti both from Austria?
Context: Amelia al ballo ("Amelia Goes to the Ball") is a one-act "opera buffa" by Gian Carlo Menotti, who set his own Italian libretto.  Composed during 1936 when Menotti was in his mid-twenties, it was the composer's first mature opera and first critical success.  The opera recounts a series of farcical events as a young Italian socialite overcomes obstacles to her attendance at the first ball of the season. PierLuigi Samaritani (September 29, 1942, Novara - January 5, 1994, Rome) was a renowned opera director/production designer, who began his career at a young age, working alongside some of the greatest names in theatre, opera and ballet, such as Lila de Nobili, Giancarlo Menotti, Franco Zeffirelli, Luciano Pavarotti, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Rudolf Nureyev and many more.  Samaritani had an enormous talent, which allowed him to take on all the rolls the theatre, opera and ballet demanded, making sure to always be involved in all aspects of his productions even when delegating.  From the creation of his "sketches" of the set, which were more like works of art in and of themselves to the smallest change in an extra’s costume, he was a true perfectionist preoccupied with every detail.  His productions graced the stage of countless opera houses and theaters, amongst them La Scala di Milano, Teatro Regio of Parma, The Metropolitan Opera House, American Ballet Theatre and the Festival of Two Worlds at Spoleto (Festival dei Due Mondi), where he collaborated for many years, alongside his dear friend, Gian Carlo Menotti.  The Teatro Lirico Sperimentale di Spoleto founded in 1947 in Spoleto, by Adriano Belli created a special award carrying the name of Pier Luigi Samaritani, awarded each year to the set designer with the best set design of the opera season. John Reardon (8 April 193016 April 1988) was an American baritone and actor who was noted for his performances on television, including many appearances on the PBS children's television show "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood".  Reardon was a member of the New York Metropolitan Opera from 1965 until 1977, appearing in such operas as "Carmen" and "Jenufa".  In 1967, Reardon created the role of Orin Mannon (the equivalent of Orestes in Aeschylus' Oresteia) in the world premiere of Marvin David Levy's "Mourning Becomes Electra".  He co-starred with Phil Silvers on Broadway in the Jule Styne musical "Do Re Mi" introducing the standard song "Make Someone Happy."  He also appeared on Broadway in "New Faces of 1956" and Gian Carlo Menotti's "The Saint of Bleecker Street".  He performed the role of Schaunard in the famous 1956 recording of "La Boheme" conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham.  In 1960 he created a main role of Mr. McC in a nine-minute opera "Introductions and Good-Byes" by Lukas Foss, premiered on May 5, 1960 in New York City with New York Philharmonic conducted by Leonard Bernstein.  In 1969 he created the role of Dr. Stone in the premiere of Menotti's "Help, Help, the Globolinks! " at the Santa Fe Opera.  Reardon was chosen by Igor Stravinsky to sing the role of Nick Shadow on Stravinsky's second recording of his opera "The Rake's Progress".  Reardon also appears on several of Ben Bagley's "Painted Smiles" "Revisited" albums. The Hero is a two-act opera by Italian-American composer Gian Carlo Menotti.  Commissioned by the Opera Company of Philadelphia, the work premiered at the Philadelphia Academy of Music on June 1, 1976.  At this point of his career, Menotti's style of composition, which rejected the avant-garde, was out of favor with the classical music world. " Time" stated in its review of the opera, "Most of Menotti's music is passable Puccini: melodic, easy to take—and totally beside the point in 1976." Labyrinth is an opera in one act by composer Gian Carlo Menotti.  The work was commissioned for television by the NBC Opera Theatre and uses an English language libretto by the composer.  Unlike Menotti's previous television operas, such as "Amahl and the Night Visitors", this opera was written with no intention of being moved to live stage performance later.  Menotti intended for this work to utilize the special effects unique to television which could not be recreated in live theatre.  As a result, NBC's television production of the opera is the only performance the work has received.  At its premiere in March 1963 the opera was mainly criticized by the press for its trite use of allegory and music which rejected the avante garde in favour of romanticism.  Critic Harold C. Schonberg stated in his review in "The New York Times" that, "Menotti falls back on the procedures he has always used: the scraps of canonic imitation, the stretches of parlando, the Puccini like melodies, the banal waltz themes... [It] ended up an allegory that had all the dimension of a Mobius strip: an example of slick television and cinema of the 1960s wedded pretty much to music of the 1890s... On the whole "Labyrinth" is one of the thinnest musical concoctions Menotti has ever put together. Martin's Lie is a chamber opera in one act with music and an English language libretto by Gian Carlo Menotti.  Commissioned by CBS, it was Menotti's third opera for television after "Amahl and the Night Visitors" and "Labyrinth".  Although not initially conceived as a work for the stage, the opera premiered in a live theatrical performance on 3 June 1964 at the Bristol Cathedral for the opening of the 17th annual Bath International Music Festival.  The opera was subsequently filmed with the same cast for television under the direction of Kirk Browning.  The production used sets and costumes by designer Anthony Powell, and was broadcast nationally by CBS for the opera's United States premiere on 30 May 1965. Arnold Franz Walter Schoenberg or Schönberg ( ; ] ; 13 September 187413 July 1951) was an Austrian composer, music theorist, and painter.  He was associated with the expressionist movement in German poetry and art, and leader of the Second Viennese School.  With the rise of the Nazi Party, Schoenberg's works were labelled degenerate music, because they were modernist, atonal and what even Paul Hindemith called "sonic orgies" and "decadent intellectual efforts".  He emigrated to the United States of America in 1934. Gian Carlo Menotti (] ; July 7, 1911 – February 1, 2007) was an Italian-American composer and librettist.  Although he often referred to himself as an American composer, he kept his Italian citizenship.  He wrote the classic Christmas opera "Amahl and the Night Visitors", along with over two dozen other operas intended to appeal to popular taste. The Old Maid and the Thief is a radio opera in one act by Italian-American composer Gian Carlo Menotti.  The work uses an English language libretto by the composer which tells a twisted tale of morals and evil womanly power.  Menotti writes in the libretto "The devil couldn't do what a woman can- Make a thief out of an honest man." La Loca "(The Madwoman)", also known as Juana la Loca "(Crazy Joanna)," is an opera by Gian Carlo Menotti, composed in 1979.  It is a romantic drama about the life of Joanna of Castille (1479–1555).  It was written as a vehicle for soprano Beverly Sills and received its premiere on June 3, 1979, at the San Diego Opera, followed by the New York City Opera.  Critical response was largely negative, so Menotti completely reworked it.  The revised version premiered in 1982 at the Festival of Two Worlds in Spoleto, Italy.  The American premiere of the revised version took place at the Spoleto Festival USA in Charleston, South Carolina, on June 1, 1984.
