Packed full of new archival evidence that reveals the
interconnected world of music theatre during the 'Classical era',
this interdisciplinary study investigates key locations, genres,
music, and musicians. Austin Glatthorn explores the extent to which
the Holy Roman Empire delineated and networked a cultural entity
that found expression through music for the German stage. He maps
an extensive network of Central European theatres; reconstructs the
repertoire they shared; and explores how print media, personal
correspondence, and their dissemination shaped and regulated this
music. He then investigates the development of German melodrama and
examines how articulations of the Holy Roman Empire on the musical
stage expressed imperial belonging. Glatthorn engages with the most
recent historical interpretations of the Holy Roman Empire and
offers quantitative, empirical analysis of repertoire supported by
conventional close readings to illustrate a shared culture of music
theatre that transcended traditional boundaries in music
scholarship.
