Book Title: The Grove Book of Operas - Second Edition
Author: Edited by Stanley Sadie and revised by Laura Macy
Selection Statement:
As an opera singer, I was required to research the roles I performed; now I use this book as a suggested text for my opera literature course (in the newest edition). The Grove series is the most respected resource in my field and this book contains the operas most frequently performed; it's a great place to start one's research. The book provides historical information, plot synopses, context and interesting facts; includes a glossary and helpful indices.
