The fame of his operas rests on his radical treatment of form, his development of scenic complexes and greater plasticity of structure and melody, his dynamic use of the orchestra, and close attention to all aspects of presentation and production, all of which set new standards in Romantic opera and dramaturgy. This book carries forward the process of rediscovery and reassessment of Meyerbeer's art "including not just his famous French operas, but also his German and Italian ones"placing them in the context of his...

Daniel-François-Esprit Auber: L’Enfant prodigue
ISBN: 9781443829083 / Miękka / 2011 / 375 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Perhaps the greatest turning point in Auber’s life was his meeting with the librettist Eugène Scribe (1791–1861), with whom he...
