Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive history of opera, beginning with the creation of the art form in the late 16th century and following its development for over three hundred years in Italy, France, Germany, and England. The author places the creation of opera in the broader historical context of the Italian Renaissance and explains how the innovations of the Florentine Camerata gave birth to this new musical genre. The author delves into the evolution of opera's musical forms and styles, from the recitative of the early works to the elaborate arias of the Baroque era and the dramatic intensity of 19th-century Italian opera and German music drama. Also covered is the rise of the opera singer as a celebrity and a decisive influence on the development of opera. This account of opera's history does not shy away from the art form's complexities, which gives it depth and nuance that will appeal to readers new to opera and experts alike.
