About this title

Synopsis

A very nice copy that looks new. Under the jacket the very top 1/8 inch of the cover is very lightly faded from sun hittng very top. Kind of nit-picky to care about but mentioned for accuracy. No other faults or markings. A beautifully illustrated and well-made book

Reviews

This book is a fine example of recent interest among performing arts scholars in performance history and dramatic realization. Using archival material from Europe's opera houses, historical illustrations of costume and stage design, and superbly printed photographs of contemporary performances, Angermuller focuses on Mozart's evolution and impact as a music dramatist. He also discusses the genesis of each opera, using Mozart's letters and contemporary accounts of first performances to reveal Mozart's working methods and his pragmatic adjustments to available singers and cultural expectations. The documentation of subsequent stagings show how perceptions of Mozart changed over time and geography and also the difficulties involved in staging his operas. Recommended for all performing arts collections.
