"The Way of Ambition"
Robert Hichens
His last production in England, "Pyramus and Thisbe," was a Pasticcio opera, in which he embodied the best bits out of his previous works.

George T. Ferris
The previous Italian operas had been works of little distinction, and some of them had even been Pasticcio operas, as they were called, put together from songs by various composers.
"Handel"
Edward J. Dent
