Since the 18th century, opera singers have been an obligatory element in the production of opera. Opera singers are mainly responsible for the dramatic expression of a character or situation by singing.

Opera singers can be categorized into different types based on their roles in operas, their vocal range, and their vocal type.

What is Opera and Who are the French Singers

Opera is a form of Western classical music, which consists of vocal and instrumental parts, and is typically an art form in the Western world. It is one of the oldest and most prestigious arts.

Opera singers are people who sing opera. The French opera singers are often called “fewer tragédiens”. They usually play male or female roles in operas.

A Brief History of Debussy and how he Influenced French Opera

Claude Debussy was a French composer who is widely considered one of the most prominent figures in the history of classical music. He exerted an enormous influence on French opera, which can still be felt today.

Debussy’s musical style was unique and very different from the operas that were previously composed. His compositions were characterized by using innovative harmonies and rhythms, as well as by his use of whole-tone scales. Some composers refused to accept Debussy’s different style, which caused him to never become fully accepted into the Paris Conservatoire.

French Operetta and its Contribution to Contemporary Music

The French Operetta is a genre of theater that is characterized by the mixing of operatic and dramatic styles.

Traditional operettas in France were usually in verse and were composed and written by composers like Lecocq, Offenbach, and Hervé. The earliest operetta was “La Poupée de Nuit” (1858) by Charles Lecocq.

In 1875, Hervé, who had been working with Offenbach for many years, broke off from him to create his series of works which he called “opéras-comiques”. These were more serious than the usual fare from Offenbach, but still contained literary elements from Offenbach’s work.

Conclusion: The Future of French Opera Singers

The future of French opera singers is not bleak. French opera, as a genre, is also evolving to fit the needs of the present.
