Book Reviews of Opera 101: A Complete Guide to Learning and Loving Opera
Book Review: The perfect book for the beginner, enticing you to listen.
Summary: 5 Stars
I searched through many books looking for something that wasn't too heavy. This book is perfect for the person who wants to learn about opera and learn how to listen and what to listen for. It recommends specific recordings of well known pieces and takes you step by step through the recordings. I have just completed my second opera and can't wait to get started on the next one.
