''[[Jeanie Deans]]'' is an opera in four acts by Hamish MacCunn (1868–1916) set to a libretto by Joseph Bennett which is loosely based on Walter Scott's novel, ''[[The Heart of Midlothian]]'' and is named after its heroine, "Jeanie Deans". The opera was commissioned by the [[Carl Rosa Opera Company]] and first produced at the Royal Lyceum Theatre in Edinburgh on 15 November 1894[1] to great acclaim.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeanie_Deans_(opera)]
