Morris Christopher
Reading Opera between the Lines Orchestral Interludes and Cultural Meaning from Wagner to Berg
Cambridge University Press. New in Fine dust jacket. 2002. Hardcover. 0521807387 . xii 219pp music examples. A feature of Wagnerian and post-Wagnerian opera is the tendency to link scenes with numerous and often surprisingly lengthy orchestral interludes frequently performed with the curtain closed. Often taken for granted or treated as a filler by audiences and critics these interludes can take on very prominent roles representing dream sequences journeys and sexual encounters and in some cases becoming a highlight of the opera. The author investigates the implications of these important but strangely overlooked passages. ; New Perspectives in Music History and Criticism . Cambridge University Press hardcover

History of Chinese Clothing Research Group of the Shanghai Traditional Opera School
Chinese Clothing and Adornment in Various Dynasties Zhongguo Lidai Fushi
Scholar Book Publishers 1980. 324 pages. Folio sized hardcover bound in cream colored cloth and wrapped in an illustrated paper dustjacket. Not dated in English but possibly published c. 1980. Texts in Chinese with a single paged English summary separately laid in. The binding is tight and crisp with no interior markings. The dustjacket now protected by a Mylar cover is in equally fine condition with no tears or losses. Lavishly illustrated with large full color drawings photographs and paintings as well as a number of smaller black and white images that help even the non-Chinese reader to grasp the changes in style and ornament throughout the history of perhaps the oldest civilization of the world. The reader of Chinese will benefit from the great amount of text which presumably offers a scholarly context for the images The English summary counted nine chapters 160000 words and 834 illustrations including 346 color photographs. Beginning with what looks to be a deer pelt adorned with a necklace of shells this history of fashion concludes with the modern stylings of the twentieth century woman in slacks and knee-length dresses.
