Summary
Welsh National Opera performs Joseph Bologne’s 1780 work, The Anonymous Lover, at the Wales Millennium Centre.
Why it's fantastic
This rare eighteenth-century comedy is the only surviving opera by Joseph Bologne, the pioneering Black composer who famously rivalled Mozart in the courts of Paris. Its elegant melodies and lighthearted plot make for a perfect introduction to the genre, offering a refreshing glimpse into a long-overlooked piece of musical history.
