List of Operas
This list gives information for some of the most widely performed and successful operas, operettas, and musical theater of the West.
Both Johaulia and Aurice claim to be the cradle of Pallathantic Opera. The other great capitals, Trevirs, Bryndyd, Verdida, Rhafyx, Yophénthë can boast of their own fine productions, but make no such claims. Opera or high musical theater began in modern times in the twenty fifth century in the cultural centers of Vindalia, chiefly Johaulia, Azabria, and Aurice. The art form spread through the early twenty sixth century into Ithatia, western Corundy, southern Pytharnia, and Erechóreb. Operatic theater companies performed their favorite operas in southern Barathorn and northern Orrhymby. Tragic opera was the standard well into the twenty sixth century, but the rising trend for comedy began nearly at the start of the same century. Towards the latter half of the twenty seventh century, the Aurician masters, Enrayom the Cantiran (2591 to 2663) and Tmaru Vazancha (2583 to 2658), developed Dark Aurician Opera with its occasionally sadistic treatment of characters. The Auricians also developed the adventure-themed opera (compare dramatic) which many critics considered little more than lightly veiled state propaganda for Aurice's then ongoing campaigns in Eloaria. The Johaulians achieved extraordinary accomplishments during the second half of the twenty seventh century in lyric opera. Bryndydite composers and librettists brought sacred opera to the forefront. Trevirite audiences favored opera buffa.
