More about the book

Exploring the essence of operatic performance, Carolyn Abbate examines acoustic images from Monteverdi to Ravel, emphasizing the vital role of live musicians and singers. She argues that operas are intrinsically linked to the spontaneity of their performance, advocating for a balance between viewing operas as abstract works and recognizing the dynamic nature of live staging and interpretation.
