This volume presents a collection of essays by leading Gluck
scholars which highlight the best of recent and classic
contributions to Gluck scholarship, many of which are now difficult
to access. Tracing Gluck's life, career and legacy, the essays
offer a variety of approaches to the major issues and controversies
surrounding the composer and his works and range from the degree to
which reform elements are apparent in his early operas to his
contribution to changing perceptions of Hellenism. The introduction
identifies the major topics investigated and highlights the
innovatory nature of many of the approaches, particularly those
which address perceptions of the composer in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries. This volume, which focuses on one of the most
fascinating and influential composers of his era, provides an
indispensable resource for academics, scholars and libraries.
