This collection of essays, presented by an internationally known
team of scholars, explores the world of Vienna and the development
of opera buffa in the second half of the eighteenth century.
Although today Mozart remains one of the most well-known figures of
the period, the era was filled with composers, librettists, writers
and performers who created and developed opera buffa. Among the
topics examined are the relationship of Viennese opera buffa to
French theatre; Mozart and eighteenth-century comedy; gender,
nature and bourgeois society on Mozart's buffa stage; as well as
close analyses of key works such as Don Giovanni and Le nozze di
Figaro.
