Schwergewicht
''Schwergewicht, oder Die Ehre der Nation'' (''Heavyweight'' (a play on inertia ) ''or The Glory of The Nation'') is a ''burleske Operette'' with text and music by Ernst Krenek, his opus 55 and (with ''Der Diktator'' and ''Das geheime Königreich'') the third of his 1928 one-acters. This satirical skit (as the composer was to call it in ''Horizons Circled'') was provoked by the German ambassador's comment that sports heroes --and not artists-- were the true ambassadors of nations, and the title character Ochsenschwanz ("oxtail") is a reference to the boxer Max Schmeling.
Like ''Jonny spielt auf'', it makes frequent allusions to jazz, both in its use of percussion and banjo and in its "Tempo di Blues". There is even a nod to Mendelssohn's ''Wedding March'' (see example).
==Performance history==
The score was begun 15 March 1927 in Kassel and completed on June 14; the premiere took place on 6 May 1928 at the Festspiele Wiesbaden and was followed by a production in Leipzig.
