Origin Of the Opera.

The opera, like nearly everything
else interesting in the world Of mind,
had It's origin in ancient Athens. The
earliest librettos were by Sophocles
and Aeschylus, such as the "Abamem-
non" and "Antigone," a band Of flutes
and Tyres constituting the orchestra,
the dialogues being unsteady declaim-
ed and the choruses sung to the best
music of the time. Thus do we have
