Offers a view of opera buffa in the theatrical world of late-eighteenth-century Vienna. This book attributes opera buffa's success to its ability to provide 'sheer' pleasure and hence explores how the genre functioned as entertainment. It shows how the arias and ensembles convey a multifaceted picture of the repertory's social values and habits.
