The Bohemian Girl is an opera in three acts composed by Michael William Balfe and first performed in London in 1843. The story is set in the 18th century and follows the adventures of a young woman named Arline who is kidnapped and raised by gypsies. Arline falls in love with a nobleman named Thaddeus who is also hiding with the gypsies after being falsely accused of a crime. The two lovers face many obstacles as they try to escape their pasts and build a new life together. The opera is known for its beautiful melodies, including the famous aria I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls. Balfe's score is a mix of romantic and comic elements, with lively dance music and dramatic duets. The Bohemian Girl has been performed regularly since its premiere and remains one of the most popular operas of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
