Jacques Offenbach (1819 - 1880) was a French composer, impresario and
cellist during the romantic period. He is most remembered for producing
almost 100 operettas during the 1850s and 1870s, and for "The Tales of
Hoffmann", his uncompleted opera. Offenbach had a significant influence
on many notable composers, including Johann Strauss, Jr. and Arthur
Sullivan. His most famous works experienced continual revival in the
20th century, and many of his compositions are still performed to this
day. Featuring large, clear note heads and wide margins, this edition is
