Description
"A treasure trove of information on a substantial, heretofore neglected repertoire, "American Opera" sketches musical traits and provides plot summaries, descriptions of sets and stagings, and biographical details on performers, composers, and librettists for more than 100 American operas, many of which have received unjustifiably scant attention since their premieres"--Amazon.com.
