The Beggar Student is a comic opera written by Carl Milloecker and first performed in 1883. The story revolves around a young nobleman named Symon who, due to a misunderstanding, is forced to flee his home and live as a beggar. He falls in love with a fellow beggar named Laura, who is actually a wealthy heiress in disguise. The two of them navigate their way through various comedic situations, including a hilarious case of mistaken identity and a series of misunderstandings involving Symon's true identity. Along the way, they are aided by a cast of colorful characters, including a group of students, a group of gypsies, and a comically inept police officer. The opera is known for its catchy melodies and witty dialogue, as well as its satirical commentary on social class and the nature of love. Overall, The Beggar Student is a lighthearted and entertaining work that has remained popular with audiences for over a century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
