<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>The Complete Operas of Verdi</i> is the first full-length study of all of Verdi's operas. This work of the brilliant British music critic Charles Osborne covers Verdi's complete operatic oeuvre--including the missing choral works, songs, a string quartet, and the Messa da Requiem. The operas of Shakespeare's <i>Falstaff </i>and <i>Othello</i> show how the legendary composer added both depth and dignity to the Italian operatic repertoire. <p/>In this volume, every Verdi opera is explored from four points of view: Verdi's life at the time each was written; the story, and the way it links with the music; the libretto and librettist, and Verdi's relations with his publishers; and the music itself, analyzed with examples from the score.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>The Complete Operas of Verdi is the first full-length study of all of Verdi's operas.
