The Little Sweep is a three-scene opera aimed at children written by the English composer Benjamin Britten, with a libretto by Eric Crozier. It is the second part of Let's Make an Opera!, the first part being a play within which the cast assume the roles of amateur performers planning, creating, and practicing the opera. This volume is ideal for introducing children to the operatic genre, and it is not to be missed by fans of Britten's fantastic work. Edward Benjamin Britten, Baron Britten OM CH (1913 - 1976) was an English conductor, composer, and pianist. He was a significant figure in 20th-century British classical music, and is not famous for Peter Grimes (1945), the War Requiem (1962) and The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra (1945). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
