The Complete Opera Book is a comprehensive guide to all things opera by Gustav Gobbé. It offers an overview of opera by looking at the various schools and their origins, as well as the history of opera in general with reference to notable figures and works. This fascinating volume is ideal for opera lovers with an interest in the history, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collection of allied literature. Contents include: Schools of Opera, Opera Before Gluck, Christoph Willibald Cluck, 1741-1787, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, 1756-1791, Ludwig van Beethoven, 1770-1827, Cari Maria von Weber, 1786-1826, Why Some Operas are Rarely Given, From Weber to Wagner, Richard Wagner, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
