Arranged alphabetically by composer, this volume is a clearly organised reference work for fans of both classical and modern opera, from Verdi to Handel, and from Mozart and Britten to Puccini. The appendix includes an index of names, subjects, and musical notation as well as a chronological overview of the premieres, making researching facts from the world of musical theatre child's play.
