What is an opera buffa?

Opera buffa is a genre of comic opera that originated in Italy in the 18th century. Characterized by lighthearted themes, humorous situations, and often featuring everyday characters rather than nobility, it typically includes lively music and witty dialogue. Notable examples include works by composers like Giovanni Battista Pergolesi and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, such as "The Marriage of Figaro." Opera buffa contrasts with opera seria, which deals with serious subjects and often features tragic themes.
