A composer handles the composition. He/she creates the music and melodies of a certain piece. He determines the musical aspect of a piece. The librettist handles the libretto. In other words, he/she creates the text (the "story") that accompanies the work of music. Talented librettists would be Lorenzo Da Ponte and Emanuel Shikaneder, favorites of Mozart, or Arrigio Boito, a favorite of Verdi. Librettists and composers function together in creating vocal works like operas and oratorios. A lyricistis the person who writes words solely for the songs, such as a Broadway musical. Operas generally had a composer and a librettist. Broadway musicals have a composer, a librettist and a lyricist, though is some cases with musicals, the librettist and the lyricist are the same person, sometimes not.
