Opera is a unique expression of the human mind and spirit - a play
that communicates plot, characterization and story almost entirely
through music. Unfortunately, because of restraints of time,
location and income, few people have the opportunity to see operas
performed on a regular basis. Public libraries are an easily
accessible alternative for gaining operatic knowledge and exposure,
offering the public a chance to hear, see, and develop an
appreciation of opera. This work is a two-part guide for libraries
that want to assemble a comprehensive collection of operatic
materials. Part I is a list of recommended operas ranging over four
hundred years of operatic history and including a variety of
different styles and languages. The goal of Part I is to provide
recommendations for a comprehensive library collection of video and
sound operatic recordings. Part II suggest books, periodicals, and
online resources that could be an integral and important part of a
library's opera collection. This section also discusses the care
and maintenance of sound and video recordings, offers suggestions
for locating hard-to-find operatic material, and explores the
library's role in sparking patron interest in opera.
