If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr Anthony Pickles.

In this talk I explore how opera spread beyond Europe in the early nineteenth century, in the wake of the Napoleonic wars, and argue that it is through reconstructing this history that we can best grasp the globalized reality of opera in the twenty-first century.
