What is "recitative"?

Recitative is a style of vocal music used in operas, oratorios, and other dramatic works. It involves singing in a way that is more like speech than melody, with a focus on delivering the text clearly and advancing the story. Recitative often accompanies a minimal accompaniment which helps to highlight the words and the dramatic content. It serves as a bridge between the more lyrical, melodic songs and the action or dialogue in the performance.
