- Nota:
- Pierre-Alexandre Monsigny (1729-1817) was a French composer and a member of the French Académie des Beaux-Arts (1813). He is considered, alongside André Grétry and François-André Danican Philidor, to have been the founder the opéra comique.
Le déserteur (The Deserter) is a drame mélé de musique (opéra comique) by the French composer Pierre-Alexandre Monsigny with a libretto by Michel-Jean Sedaine. The work was Monsigny's greatest musical success and is one of the key operas of late 18th-century French opéra comique. The work mixes serious and comic elements, an example of the latter being the behaviour of the drunkard Montauciel. The theme of a last-minute reprieve from execution influenced later rescue opera. - Permalink:
