Special attention will be paid to generically hybrid works, in which comedy and tragedy intersect, and those concerned with parody and surrealism. Later 19th-century repertoire will include Verdi?s Falstaff and Leoncavallo?s Pagliacci before we turn our attention to Ariadne auf Naxos, Prokofiev?s The Love for Three Oranges, Shostakovich's The Nose, and Stravinsky?s The Rake's Progress. Restriction(s): Restricted to students in the Music department.
