Synopsis

First published in 1880, "Boosey's Guide to the Opera" contains information about many famous operas that have been performed in England and elsewhere, including descriptions, summaries, analyses, and biographical details of their composers. This volume will appeal to opera lovers and is not to be missed by collectors of vintage operatic literature. Contents include: "Beethoven", "Bizet", "Cornelius", "Donizetti", "Gluck", "Gounod", "Humperdink", "Leoncavallo", "Mascagni", "Mayerbeer", "Mozart", "Nocolai", "Ponchielli", "Puccini", "Bossini", "Smetana", "Tchaikovsky", "Thomas", "Verdi", "Wagner", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned introduction on singing.
