List of famous operas - Standard operatic repertory
This list comprises the standard operatic repertory, arranged alphabetically by composer followed by city and date of first staged performance. All the operas in this list are discussed in standard guidebooks, such as The Penguin Guide to Opera, ed. Amanda Holden, 1994. Many splendid and under-appreciated masterpieces, aside from operatic curiosities, can be found in entries under the names of their individual composers.
In many opera houses this international repertory is supplemented by local standards. An American list, for example, might include George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess, Carlisle Floyd's Susannah, or Samuel Barber's Vanessa. Debate over the accepted canon tends to be most intense around the periphery.
Details of plot, anecdotes and history of composition and production, etc. are found in the operas' individual entries (linked). These lists are not complete: complete lists of composers' operas are to be found in the composers' individual entries (linked), and in Category:Operas.
