Loreley is a three-act azione romantica opera by Alfredo Catalani, composed to a libretto by Angelo Zanardini, Giuseppe Depanis, Carlo D'Ormeville and others, first performed at the Teatro Regio in Turin on 16 February 1890.
The opera is an extensive reworking of Catalani's dramma fantastico Elda, originally with a text by Carlo D'Ormeville, first given in Turin in 1880.
(Note: The 1989 Disney film "The Little Mermaid" is a variation on "Loreley", though the sad ending is not available everywhere, it only includes a happy ending.)
