With more than 700 new entries, this revised edition addresses itself wholly to operas written specifically to a German text. The main body of this book provides entries on the operas themselves. In this way each of the works from the earliest selection through the most contemporary is given a more thorough treatment. Four appendixes list composers, librettists, authors whose works inspired or were adapted for the librettos of the operas included in the dictionary and the sources used by the librettists, and a chronological listing of the entries in the A-Z section. |
