| | Opera - Internet-Encyclopedia.com |
| | Traditional opera consists of two modes of singing: recitative, the dialogue and plot-driving passages often sung in a non-melodic style characteristic of opera, and aria, during which the movement of the plot often stops and the music and the singers focus on one topic using full voice. | | | The singers are accompanied by a musical ensemble ranging from a small instrumental ensemble to a full symphonic orchestra. | | | Wagner also made copious use of the leitmotif (Weber had used a similar device earlier), a musical device which associates a musical line with each character or idea in the story. |

| | The son of a schoolmaster, he showed an extraordinary childhood aptitude for music, studying the piano, violin, organ, singing and harmony and, while a chorister in the imperial court chapel, composition with Salieri (1808-13). | | | Both the opera and Daudet's play L'arlesienne, for which Bizet wrote incidental music, failed when produced in 1872, but in neither case did this have anything to do with the music. | | | There he played the violin and harpsichord in the opera house, where his Almira was given at the beginning of 1705, soon followed by his Nero. |

| | One of the main innovators of musical modernism, Hindemith was a composer, conductor, violist, educator, and theoretician. | | | He left the United States for Switzerland, his music increasingly ignored, but he nevertheless produced the masterpieces Symphony in B for Band, the organ concerto, Twelve Madrigals, the opera Die Harmonie der Welt and a related symphony, and his last work, a mass for unaccompanied chorus. | | | Ironically, the late works share a similarity of sound with late Schoenberg. |
