Although stage plays have been set

Although stage plays have been set to music since the era of the ancient Greeks, when the
dramas of Sophocles and Aeschylus were accompanied by lyres and flutes, the usually accepted date
for the beginning of opera as we know it is 1600, As part of the celebration of the marriage of King
Henry IV of France to the Italian aristocrat Maria de Medici, the Florentine composer Jacopo Peri
produced his famous Euridice, generally considered to be the first opera. Following his example, a
group of Italian musicians, poets, and noblemen called the Camerata began to revive the style of
musical story that had been used in Greek tragedy. The Camerata took most of the plots for their
operas from Greek and Roman history and mythology, writing librettos or dramas for music. They
called their compositions opera in musica or musical works. It is from this phrase that the word
"opera" is borrowed.
For several years, the center of opera was Florence, but gradually, during the baroque period, it
spread throughout Italy. By the late 1600s, operas were being written and performed in Europe,
especially in England, France, and Germany. But, for many years, the Italian opera was considered
the ideal, and many non-Italian composers continued to use Italian librettos. The European form de-
emphasized the dramatic aspect. New orchestral effects and even ballet were introduced under the
guise of opera. Composers gave in to the demands of singers, writing many operas that were nothing
more than a succession of brilliant tricks for the voice. Complicated arias, recitatives, and duets
evolved. The aria, which is a long solo, may be compared to a song in which the characters express
their thoughts and feelings. The recitative, which is also a solo, is a recitation set to music whose
purpose is to continue the story line. The duet is a musical piece written for two voices which may
serve the function of either an aria or a recitative.
