Description

Verdi and his Operas is derived from the prestigious New Grove Dictionary of Opera, the world's leading reference work on opera. Verdi and his Operas brings together in one affordable volume the story of Giuseppe Verdi's life and career, and synopses and authoritative appreciations of all his operas from Aida to Les Vjpres siciliennes ('The Sicilian Vespers'). A chronological table will help the reader to situate Verdi's operas in the wider context of his life and career, and a glossary will provide readers with concise and informative explanations of any operatic terms used in the text. Generously illustrated, Verdi and his Operas will be an enjoyable and enlightening read for opera lovers of all levels.
