Summary: An outstanding compendium for the rest of us!
Comment: This seems to me a monumental achievement in its scope of information, presentation and scholarship yet never pretending to be more than it is and at the same time, far greater than the sum of its facts. Beautifullly illustrated and annotated, this book by Mr. Raeburn takes us through the most interesting of operatic tours from Peri to Maxwell Davies. It is at once a monument to the joy and intelligence which Mr.Raeburn has lavished on this book and to the labor of love which created it. A joy to read with information that meets the reader's needs from every conceivable angle while missing litle detail without overwhelming with a myriad of facts. A coffee table book, if there is really is such a animal, which one can pick up and put down at leasure and with continued pleasure. A heartfelt thanks to Michael Raeburn for writng this masterpiece and to Thames and Hudson for publishing it. I can only hope it will bring joy and profit to all involved: reader, author and publisher. This publication deserves nothing less and much more. Thanks to Amazon.com for the chance to e-mail comments to them. This is my fourth message today. Even if it is never read it was fun writing it.
