Anselm Gerhard explores the origins of "grand opera, arguing that
its aesthetic innovations (both musical and theatrical) reflected
not bourgeois tastes, but changes in daily life and psychological
outlook produced by the rapid urbanization of Paris. These larger
urban and social concerns--crucial to our understanding of
nineteenth-century opera--are brought to bear in fascinating
discussions of eight operas composed by Rossini, Auber, Meyerbeer,
Verdi, and Louise Bertin."
""An invaluable look at this fascinating genre."--George W. Loomis,
Opera News"
