From the early days of the Great White Way, a large amount of the musical theatre repertoire was actually operetta. I begin with a discussion of the composers of such operettas (Victor Herbert, Rudolf Friml, and Sigmund Romberg, with a significant nod to Jerome Kern as well) and the singers who appeared in those works. Then I present an array of works adapted from the classical repertoire (primarily Wright and Forrest\u2019s <em>Song of Norway<\/em> and <em>Kismet<\/em>), followed by examples of that curious hybrid, Broadway opera, including Gian Carlo Menotti\u2019s <em>The Medium<\/em> and <em>The Consul<\/em>; Marc Blitzstein\u2019s <em>Regina<\/em>; Frank Loesser\u2019s <em>The Most Happy Fella<\/em>; Kurt Weill and Langston Hughes\u2019s <em>Street Scene<\/em>; and Leonard Bernstein\u2019s <em>Candide<\/em>. A wide range of singers is included, some celebrated (Lotte Lenya, Patricia Neway, Barbara Cook, Marta Eggerth, Lawrence Tibbett), some less so (Helena Scott, Lee Venora, Fritzi Scheff, Robert Rounseville), the careers of some of whom stretch back to the beginning of the century, but all singers which straddled the fence between musicals, operetta, and opera. But rest assured: this is no dry history lesson: it\u2019s a fast-paced romp through a fun and fascinating topic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-size\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><strong> RECORDINGS HEARD IN THIS EPISODE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/countermelodypodcast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Lenya.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5540\" width=\"304\" height=\"380\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Kurt Weill, Maxwell Anderson: September Song (<em>Knickerbocker Holiday<\/em>).
