Remaking the Song: Operatic Visions and Revisions from Handel to Berio - Ernest Bloch Lectures
Roger Parker
Opera performances are often radically inventive. Composers' revisions, singers' improvisations, and stage directors' re-imaginings continually challenge our visions of canonical works. But do they go far enough? This book, spanning almost the entire history of opera, reexamines attitudes toward some of our best-loved musical works.
