By Gustave Charpentier

Louise: Roman Musical En Quatre Actes Et Cinq Tableaux (1900) is a French-language opera written by Gustave Charpentier. The story follows the life of a young seamstress named Louise who dreams of a better life outside of her working-class neighborhood in Paris. She falls in love with a young artist named Julien, but their relationship is met with opposition from Louise's parents who disapprove of Julien's bohemian lifestyle. Despite their objections, Louise and Julien continue their relationship and eventually move in together. However, their happiness is short-lived as Julien's lack of success as an artist leads to financial struggles and tensions between the couple. The opera explores themes of love, class, and the pursuit of dreams.
