| The Duenna is a 18th century pastiche comic opera written by Richard Brinsley Sheridan. Featuring music from Thomas Linley the elder and his son, Thomas Linley the younger, the opera also included music from Italian and ballad operas. The most frequently performed opera by Sheridan, it was considered one of the most successful operas ever staged in England. Well received by the paying public, it held renowned admirers such as Samuel Johnson, William Hazlitt and Lord George Byron.— Excerpted from The Duenna on Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. |
