English opera
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
English opera is the art and genre of opera in England. The genre consists of operas composed by English composers, as well as those by composers of English origin whose works were written and staged outside of England. English opera has made considerable contributions to the nation's culture throughout its history, most obviously in the works of Henry Purcell and Benjamin Britten. Arthur Sullivan was also a notable English composer of opera, particularly comic opera, in the late Victorian era.
