A set of 14 operettas written between 1871 and 1896, with librettos and lyrics by British playwright WS Gilbert and music by British composer AS Sullivan. The theatre built by Richard D'Oyly Carte with the profits from Sullivan's early works was called the Savoy Theatre in 1881, and this became the main venue for performances thereafter, hence the name "Savoy Opera." However, as dialogue without music appears frequently, strictly speaking they should be called operettas. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
イギリスの劇作家W.S.ギルバートが台本と詞,イギリスの作曲家A.S.サリバンが曲を書き,1871年から96年にかけて発表された14編のオペレッタ。サリバンの初期の作品の収益によりドイリー・カートRichard D’Oyly Carteが建てた劇場が1881年にサボイ劇場として開場し,以後はここがおもな上演場所となったため,〈サボイ・オペラ〉の名がある。ただし,音楽を伴わないせりふが頻出するので,厳密にはオペレッタと呼ぶべきである。
