Each synopsis is accompanied by information about the composer, the librettist, and the historical context in which the opera was written. The book also includes a glossary of musical terms, a list of operatic characters and their descriptions, and a bibliography of additional resources for opera enthusiasts. With its clear and concise writing style, the Handbook of the Operas is an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning more about the world of opera.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
