THE VIENNA OPERA: History and Legend

by Marcel Prawy ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 1, 1970

A fortissimo celebration of the Vienna State Opera and its artists, by the Last of the Red Hot Opera Lovers (veteran of 10,000 performances and executive producer at the Vienna Volksoper). The history proceeds by artistic eras, with each chapter centered around the personality of a director. Memories of magnificent performers, great performances, and golden days are reinforced by a wealth of illustrations (176 in all, 32 in color) including Prawy's ""family album"" of famous opera faces.
