Offenbach and Lehár composed in this genre (8)

I believe the answer is:

operetta

(Other definitions for operetta that I've seen before include "work of note" , "Sung entertainment" , "some music theatre" , "Eg, Orpheus in the Underworld" , "Eg, The Gondoliers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
