Die schöne Galathée
Album by Franz von Suppé & Rheinische Philharmonie & Thomas Eitler
Die schöne Galathée is an operetta by Austrian composer Franz von Suppé, first performed in 1865. The score exemplifies mid-19th-century Viennese operetta through its light orchestration, lyrical melodies and brisk ensemble writing, and it occupies a place in Suppé's stage output as an example of his comic-operetta work that contributed to the development of the genre.
