Abstract
Bu çalışma, romantik bir besteci ve şarkıcı olarak Michael William Balfe’nin önemini vurgulamaya çalışmaktadır. Genel bir girişten sonra, Balfe’nin kariyeri ve İngilizce konuşan dünya dışında bir besteci olarak neden unutulduğunun nedenleri tartışılmıştır. Son bölümde çoğunlukla Miguel de Cervantes’in kısa romanı La Gitanilla ve müzikal ve teatral eserlere uyarlamaları, Balfe’nin Bohemyalı Kız adlı operasına odaklanılmış, bu iki eser arasındaki ilişkiler analiz edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak Cervantes eserleri hakkında araştırma yapmak isteyen araştırmacılara kaynak olması hedeflenmiştir.

Abstract
This study aims to emphasize the importance of Michael William Balfe as a Romantic opera composer and singer. After a general introduction, Balfe’s career and the reasons why he has been long-forgotten as a composer outside the English-speaking world are discussed. The last section is mostly based on Miguel de Cervantes’ short novel La Gitanilla and its adaptations into musical and theatrical works, with a special focus on Balfe’s opera, The Bohemian Girl. The relations between these two works are analyzed in comparison. Thus, this paper is intended to be a source for researchers who want to study the works of Cervantes.
