A Guide to Understanding and Appreciating Opera.
Includes 2 Audio CDs.
This series offers a marriage of music and the written word in the most complete and popularly priced package yet produced. Each of the sets in the 'Black Dog Opera Library' includes a complete opera on two Angel/EMI CDs, accompanied by the complete libretto in its original language and English translation with annotated commentary.
Full-colour photographs illustrate the history of the operas, and an entertaining text discusses the musical heritage of the composers, the music and the performances.
