Twentieth Century Opera: A Guide

by George W. Martin

Martin provides a guide to opera that is sweeping in its scope, thorough in its detail, and authoritative in its commentary. He recalls a century of achievement in an art form that today enjoys unprecedented popularity and that has been generously enriched by challenging works - in many cases yet to be fully recognized - of the modern era.
