Arepertoire (/ˈrɛpərtwɑːr/)[1] is a list or set of dramas, operas, musical compositions or roles which a company or person is prepared to perform.[2]
Musicians often have a musical repertoire. The first known use of the word repertoire was in 1847.[2] It is a loanword from the French language, as répertoire (French: [ʁe.pɛʁ.twaʁ]), with a similar meaning in the arts. This word, in turn, has its origin in the Late Latin word repertorium.[2]
The concept of a basic repertoire has been extended to refer to groups which focus mainly on performing standard works, as in repertory theater or repertoire ballet.[3]
