Beskrivelse af The Beggar's Opera To Which Is Added The Music To Each Song
The Beggar's Opera is a classic play by John Gay that was first performed in 1728. It is a satirical work that uses the conventions of opera to tell the story of a group of criminals and their exploits. The play is set in the criminal underworld of London, and the characters are all drawn from the lower classes of society. The central character is Macheath, a notorious thief and womanizer who is pursued by both the law and his many lovers. The play is notable for its use of popular songs of the day, which are adapted and given new lyrics to fit the story. In this edition, the music to each song is included, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of popular music. Overall, The Beggar's Opera is a witty and entertaining work that offers a unique glimpse into the social and cultural world of eighteenth-century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
