Sutcliffe Tom
The Faber Book of Opera
Gordonsville Virginia U.S.A.: Faber & Faber 2001. First edition. Hard cover binding 402 pp. Opera has always generated strong views and opinions. What did Berlioz write about Weber's Der Freisch�tz in 1841 What was the idea behind Gluck's Reform operas How did Mozart himself view his collaboration with the librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte What is the legacy of Maria Callas These are among the myriad questions that are addressed in this collection of writings about opera�in theory in practice in review and in fiction�all drawn from primary sources by Tom Sutcliffe. From Gustave Flaubert's description of a performance of Lucia di Lammermoor in Madame Bovary to Voltaire's exploration of the difficulties of conveying true tragedy within the operatic form to Virginia Woolf's views on Wagner's Parsifal which seemed to her to have been "poured out in a smooth stream at white heat" this is a collection that covers in some 75 carefully chosen excerpts just what it is that makes opera so extraordinary. New in new dustjacket. First Edition. Hard Cover. New/New. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Faber & Faber hardcover
