Offenbach Couplets du Canard

Even after the success of his full-length opéras-bouffes and the disappearance of the constrictions which had limited him in earlier days to writing and producing one-act pieces with tiny casts, Offenbach continued to turn out musical playlets of the kind with which he had originally made his fame. Of those few written in the last dozen years of his life, the most widely successful was the mini opéra-bouffe L’Ile de Tulipatan. It premiered at the Théâtre des Bouffes-Parisiens on 30 September 1868.

Offenbach's The Best Composer Ever!

This Really Really Sounds Like One Of Ernie's Bathtime Songs On Sesame Street! Not An Old And Obscure Opera From 1868! I Love Offenbach's Extremely Silly Music!
