There are better books on the composer, which have been published in the 50 years since this volume, but this is a decent introduction to his operatic work. ( ) " Britten," said Sir George Solti, "was an operatic genius. His departure has left an enormous emptiness in the world of music and in the lives of his friends." Talking of Britten opera A Midsummer Night's Dream, Bernard Haitink remarked that one might find the score "a little thin if you divorce it from the libretto, but the setting is so masterly that in the opera house, it must be wholly convincing." sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
This new edition has been thoroughly revised and edited by John Evans (research scholar to the Britten Estate) who has updated the chronological list of published works and included in the bibliography the many books that have been written about the composer since his death in 1976. Although, as the title suggests, this book concentrates on Britten's operatic output, Mr White's account offers insights into the whole range of this prodigious composer's music. The text is lavishly illustrated with plates that reveal both the diversity of his operatic development and comprise a distinctive pictorial bibliography.
