Book Description
George P. Upton's 'The Standard Operas: Their Plots, Their Music, and Their Composers' is a comprehensive guide to the world of opera, providing detailed descriptions of the plots, musical scores, and composers behind some of the most beloved operas in history. Upton's literary style is informative and engaging, making this book accessible to both opera enthusiasts and newcomers to the genre. Written in the late 19th century, this book serves as a valuable resource for understanding the cultural significance of opera during that time period. Upton's meticulous research and passion for opera shine through in his detailed analyses of each opera's story and music. George P. Upton, a music critic and educator, drew from his extensive knowledge of opera to create this definitive guide. His expertise in music theory and history is evident in the way he dissects the composers' intentions and the development of opera as an art form. Upton's dedication to preserving the legacy of these timeless works is reflected in the thoroughness of his research and the depth of his insights. I highly recommend 'The Standard Operas' to anyone interested in delving into the world of opera. Upton's book provides a comprehensive overview of the most famous operas, making it an essential read for opera lovers and scholars alike.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Standard Operas: Their Plots, Their Music, and Their Composers; A Handbook Being to give musically uneducated lovers of opera a clear understanding of the works they are likely to hear, and thus heighten their enjoyment. In a word, the operas are described rather than criticised. And the work is presented with as much thorough ness as seemed possible considering the necessarily brief space allotted to each. In the preparation of the Handbook, the compiler acknowledges his indebt edness to Grove's excellent Dictionary of Music for dates and other statistical information and he has also made free use of standard musical works in his library for historical events connected with the per formance and composition of the operas. It only remains to submit this work to opera-goers with the hope that it may add to their enjoyment and prove a valuable addition to their libraries.
