Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book contains the libretto for the opera The Contrabandista, written by the author as a companion to the score. The piece is an 1867 comic opera in two acts set in the mountains of Andalusia, with a libretto by F. C. Burnand and music by Arthur Sullivan. The plot revolves around a group of smugglers led by the bandit Vasquez, who falls in love with Rita, a young woman from a nearby village. The opera is full of humor, romance, and adventure, and features some of Sullivan's most beautiful music. The Contrabandista was a critical and commercial success, and it remains one of Sullivan's most popular operas. The libretto is a witty and charming piece of writing, and it perfectly captures the spirit of the opera. This book is a must-have for any fan of Sullivan's music or of comic opera in general. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the creative process of one of the most beloved composers of the Victorian era.
