Some famous female roles in the history of opera have only been possible because 19th-century composers started giving important roles to mezzo-sopranos.

By the Baroque period (1600-1750), opera had taken Europe by storm, a spectacular and expensive affair filled with ornate arias and elaborate sets with moving parts. One of the greatest composers of Italian baroque opera was George Friedrich Handel (1685-1759), a German who spent most of his life in London.

This period also saw the emergence of castrati, male singers who were castrated as boys to maintain their soprano voices. Those who survived to come out on top were the singing stars of the 17th and 18th centuries. Today these roles are sung by countertenors or women.

Why did the sale of indulgences become a critical poimt of focus during the renasaissance but not during the middle ages
AURORKA [14]

The focus on selling indulgences became so important because when the Renaissance period came, the church was losing its power, so people were able to freely buy things they wanted, even if they didn't needed them, and to not fear about being charged, beaten up, or even end up dead just because the church didn't thought its appropriate. Also, a very big factor was the fact that the people in this period, in general, had more money than the people in the Middle Ages, so the increased financial power enabled them to buy things that they found interesting but were not necessities.
