Music reviews of A - Z of Opera (includes 762 page booklet)
Music Review: What a deal! Absolutely unbelievable!!!!!!!!!
Rating: 5 Stars
I wanted to learn about opera and found the A-Z of Opera CD and book. I couldn't believe it when they got here. The price for the CD alone was a bargain, but this book is fantastic. It has the the complete A-Z of Opera from the Naxos website. That's plot synopses, cast lists and background details for hudreds of operas, plus a lot of other information.
I've received a lot of enjoyment from this set. I'm sure that Opera lovers would appreciate it and I know that it is perfect for those who would like to learn Opera.
