Description

This opera guide is addressed to children and young people, but also to their parents and relatives. It contains concise comprehensible information on all important aspects of the opera. This edition describes:

 

- the contents and characters of individual operas,

- the 400-year-old history of the opera,

- the creation of an opera performance.

- the opera house and the people working there.

 

The operas were selected according to their suitability for young opera-goers, but also to their performance frequency. The list of the dramatis personae is followed by a vivid summary of the contents, as well as by additional notes on the music, the genesis and significance of the opera, and complemented by music examples written in simple keys so that they are easy to read and to play. Graphic show selected one or two selected scenes and introduce the reader to important characters of the story in typical costumes.
