Description
No inscriptions or marks. A lovely clean crisp very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or torn or creased with light rubbing to surface. 371pp. This introduction to the art of opera reveals an extra-ordinarily rich musical tradition. It covers the basic components of opera and also the ideals and aesthetics - its conventions, its reason for being and its essential nature.
