A guide, not a bible.

An extraordinary book that gives me light in the difficult choice about what I must see - first - in opera videos. My goal is see all my loved opera videos ( Wagner, Puccini, Mascagni,etc ). It needs immediate new edition. Since 1997 there was hundred new opera videos releases and I want to know what my great Met opera critics think about them.
There's no alternative within one cover

An indispenable guide for the serious collector -- the most-used reference book on my shelf. Especially helpful for identifying the best production among multiple ones of the same work. One caveat: some of the reviewers are unduly harsh and pan productions that I found completely satisfactory in every respect. Arranged alphabetically by composer, then chronologically (not alphabetically) within each composer's section. Includes indices, e.g. by performer. All the more valuable as VHS releases dwindle and go out of print, and DVD titles are scant and of questionable interest.
