Description
The New Book of Opera Anecdotes by Ethan Mordden provides an entertaining and engaging look at the world of opera. This latest installment in Mordden's series continues to bring new stories to light, including those from prominent singers such as Renee Fleming and Roberto Alagna. Mordden shares a range of anecdotes, from humorous tales like one about a singer who tests her family with Turandot's three riddles, to more emotionally touching stories, such as one recounting a Met production of Mozart's The Marriage Of Figaro. Other stories are suspenseful, like the tale of a singer who uses his stare to make anyone turn around. With Mordden's unique voice and amplifying events for reading pleasure, this book is perfect for opera newcomers and aficionados alike.
