Sung-through
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sung-through (also through-sung) is a term describing a musical, musical film, or opera with no spoken dialogue, except perhaps for some occasional lines spoken in the course of a song but remaining part of the song's lyrics rather than constituting stand-alone dialogue.[1] Conversations, speeches, and musings are communicated musically though a combination of recitative, aria, and arioso. A through-sung opera may also be described as through-composed.
