But a friend, named Meyer, having left him a large sum of money on condition that the young composer would adopt his name, the vulgar " Beer " was con- verted into the distinguished " Meyerbeer " ; and not wishing, apparently, to do things by halves, the newly- made Meyerbeer abandoned the ill-sounding cognomen Meyerbeek's "Robert le Diable. " 157 of Liebmann which he had hitherto borne, for the euphonious Giachomo. Liebmann Beer studied com- position with Carl Maria von Weber under the Abbe" V...ogler; and Giachomo Meyerbeer, his musical education completed, went to Italy to try his fortune as a composer. He had already made some unim- portant essays at Munich ; but his first work of pre- tension was Bomilda e Gostanza, which was performed with great success at Padua in 1818. The year following Meyerbeer brought out at Venice Emma di Besburgo, which made so great an impression that its fame reached Germany, where it was reproduced at Vienna, Munich, Dresden and Frankfort. The young German composer wrote several other operas, all in the style of Rossini ; thereby causing much grief to Weber, his former fellow-student, who had hoped better things of him.
