For anyone who has been intimidated, overwhelmed, or just plain
confused by what they think opera is, Who's Afraid of Opera? offers
a lively, readable, and frankly biased guide to what author Michael
Walsh describes as "the greatest art form yet invented by
humankind". From opera's origins in Renaissance Italy to the Who's
Tommy and Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods, Walsh explores what
opera is - and what it's not; which is more important - the words
or the music?; why does it take Tristan so long to die?; a (Not
Quite) Totally Arbitrary Basic Repertoire; and what makes a great
singer. So curtain up! It's time to settle into your seat, close up
your program, and watch the house lights go down. And get ready for
the musical ride of your lives.
