English Opera in Late Eighteenth-Century London - Stephen Storace At Drury Lane

Zusammenfassung Stephen Storace (1762-96) was a prominent opera composer in London. His works exemplify the best in English opera, with music closely integrated with the drama, and including attractive tunes the audience could sing and play at home. Theatrical life and music publishing are both examined from the perspective of Storace's works.
