Book Overview
As we move into the 21st century opera is enjoying a popular revival. Since its birth in the late 1500s, opera has generally suffered from the misconception that only the privileged few, educated in the language and musical traditions of an elitist art form, could enjoy the genre. Today, however, mass culture has embraced opera -- witness the phenomenon of the Three Tenors -- and has excited ordinary people with a passion for music that synthesizes orchestra, voice, drama, and thrilling spectacle.
