Product Description
Synopsis
This volume comprises a collection of some 30 essays written in the course of the past thirty-five years, from a variety of sources. They encompass a diversity of opera-related subjects, ranging from shorter pieces for "The Listener" to substantial surveys such as "Shakespeare in the Opera House" and "Beethoven and Opera". Scholarly articles containing the results of original research appear alongside more general essays intended for the non-specialist reader with an interest in opera. The articles have been updated and annotated, and some have been extensively revised in the light of more recent information.
