Yes, many Opera composers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were influenced by Richard Wagner's style, particularly his use of leitmotifs, complex harmonies, and dramatic storytelling. Composers such as Puccini and Strauss integrated elements of Wagner's techniques into their own works, often expanding upon his ideas to create their unique sound. However, while they admired Wagner, they also sought to develop their own distinct musical identities. Ultimately, Wagner's influence shaped the evolution of opera, leading to various interpretations and adaptations in the genre.

What was the first opera to win widespread acclaim?

The first masterpiece of opera was Claudio Monteverdi's L'Orfeo of 1607. A few other composers--most notably of the Florentine camerata--had written operas that made a splash, but they were intended and viewed as experiments in reviving Ancient Greek drama, which the renaissance historians believed to have been completely sung.L'Orfeo was the first masterpiece of opera. It and two other operas of Monteverdi--"Il ritorno d'Ulisse in patria"and "L'incoronazione di Poppea" survive complete and are performed by specialist companies today. Monteverdi wrote at least eight other operas. Most of these are completely lost. A single trio exists of one of these operas, and a single aria of another.
