Product Description
Review
"This wondrous encyclopedia is an invaluable boon to all movie and opera buffs. I shall be referring to it frequently to slake my curiosity and to settle bets." Tom Lehrer; "Ken Wlaschin's encyclopedia is comprehensive, informative, readable, and user-friendly - the ideal reference for the opera lover with a passion for movie-going and a serious interest in film history. Bravo!" Thomas Glasow, editor of The Opera Quarterly"
Times Higher Education Supplement, September 3 2004
'all manner of combinations of opera and film, no matter how fleeting or insubstantial, are to be found.'

Format:Hardcover
This book is a "must buy" for any person interested in opera, operetta, singers, conductors, writers and numerous related topics and its profound effect on the film medium. Whether a connoisseur or professional in the field of opera or screen, this book has it all. You may use this book as a definitive reference, but you will also find it fascinating, entertaining and brilliantly written. There are lots of illustrations. Buy it. You'll love it.
