Book Reviews of La Boheme: Black Dog Opera Library
Book Review: Black Dog Opera La Boheme
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this opera guide very succinct and helpful in understanding some of the intricate details of this opera. As a novice in opera I loved how it explains historical facts about the composer and librettists; it provides the timing sequence when reading through the Libretto so that you know exactly what is happening at any distinct time period during the opera. There are also notes on each main aria to help the listener understand the underlying meaning of some of the events and phrases used. In addition, it highlights some of its famous performers over the past decades. I will definitely enjoy seeing this opera much more because there is so much more to appreciate than just the performance itself! I plan on collecting the rest of this series for other operas as well. An additional positive accolade is the price for this little treasure.
