The opera in three acts Rusalka is an opera in 3 acts written by Antonin Dvorak with a libretto by Jaroslav Kvapil. It is a free adaptation of the story "The Little Mermaid" 
by Hans Christian Andersen.

RUSALKA:
In Slavic mythology, a rusalka (plural: rusalki or rusalky) is a female ghost, 
water nymph, succubus, or mermaid-like demon that often dwelt in a waterway.

Rusalka in Russian folklore appears as a beautiful maiden
