This handbook for opera-goers directs the reader to the principal places throughout the world where opera is performed and also describes the most popular operas and their composers. The first part is an international directory of 150 opera houses, companies and festivals, listed alphabetically with location maps, seating plans and details of facilities and booking arrangements. The second part gives biographies of the major opera composers and scenarios of over 100 popular operas, highlighting the major arias.
For 70 years, this guide has been the world's foremost work on opera--an incomparable single-volume guide. Now, for the first time, Kobbes is available in a pocket-size paperback that will make it immediately accessible to a new generation of music lovers. All the essential information is included for more than 200 operas--from Mozart and Handel to the 20th-century masters.
The book, which was published early this year and is available unbundled from the CD-ROM for $69.95, contains information on more than 800 composers and examines some 1,500 operas in detail. Each composer's musical career is outlined, with an assessment of his or her overall contribution to opera. Opera entries include cast lists and orchestral forces, a commentary on the background of the work, a synopsis of the plot, and a musical analysis identifying musical highlights and points of interest. Recording and edition information is included. For those who don't like to turn pages, prefer to read from the screen, or just like the click-click of the mouse, the CD-ROM provides computer access via Windows to the information and pictures (small black and whites) of the book. The CD-ROM holds some enhancements: notably, three hours of music excerpts (unheard by this reviewer who lacks the needed 16-bit sound card; some, according to the press release, are as long as three to five minutes).
