thumb|Cover of a 1921 libretto for Umberto Giordano|Giordano's [[Andrea Chénier]] A libretto (from the Italian word , ) is the text used in, or intended for, an extended musical work such as an opera, operetta, masque, oratorio, cantata or musical. The term libretto is also sometimes used to refer to the story line of a ballet or the texts of major liturgical works, such as the Mass, requiem, or sacred cantata.
A libretto is the written text or story that goes with an extended musical work like an opera, operetta, oratorio, or musical. It matters because it provides the words and narrative framework that singers and performers use to tell a complete story through music.
