The Glory Of Opera by Alan Jefferson. Ref: B0904

Title: The Glory Of Opera.
Author/Editor: Alan Jefferson.
Description: The art of opera has been flourishing since 1600, yet there have been surprisingly few illustrated books evoking the atmosphere and wonder of the subject. This book does just that. It concentrates on a visual approach to this most magnificent of stage spectacles, fully capturing the glamour and grandeur of the opera in over 150 stunning pictures. The visual impact of the book is complemented by an authoriative and entertaining text. Design and production are discussed, along with the 'backroom' contribution, but the longest section of the book is devoted to a study of the world's greatests operas and singers - the remarkable and colourful characters of whom the history of opera is full. The book not only provides a wealth of background information and reference material, it communicates the author's own enthusiasm for an endlessly absorbing subject.
