We learn from the passage that the poet Crabbe —.
Few operas are as rooted in one place as Benjamin Britten's Peter Grimes. The title character is a dark-souled fisherman who goes mad after the death of his apprentice. Grimes was the invention of the poet George Crabbe. who grew up in Aldeburgh, on the eastern coast of England, in the later part of the eighteenth century. Crabbe apparently based Grimes on a detested local character. Montaga Slater, the opera's librettist, wove his elaboration of the tale into various Aldeburgh settings. Britten, who was a resident of the same town for most of his adult life, brilliantly evoked its sights and sounds in his music - the crying of gulls, the creaking of buoys, the endless booming of the waves. The obvious way to stage Grimes is to re-create the original setting of Aldeburgh and let Britten's flawless score do the rest. This was the approach taken by Tyrone Guthrie, who first directed the opera at Covent Garden's famous opera house, in 1947.
