| Tiivistelmä: | This paper contrasts experience in the Holy Roman Empire and Italy from the mid-eighteenth to the mid-nineteenth century when copyright laws began to play a major role in the economics of composition. The period 1751-1790 strongly confirms hypotheses that patron-driven opera would be expected to be qualitatively superior to market- driven opera. Italian experience from 1810-1840, however, suggests that this result cannot be generalized. The paper's main object is to follow up the suggestion that the system of financing opera through court patronage appears to have been of particular significance, and to ask whether this implies that a patronage system might lead to the creation of better operas than the market. |
