Staging Scenes from the Operas of Donizetti and Verdi - Ferrara, William

Veteran opera director William Ferrara walks the reader through the staging of twenty-five scenes from two of opera's most beloved composers. He brings to life Donizetti's delightful comedies and guides us through the dark world of Lucia di Lammmermoor. He discusses the hard moral choices in Verdi's tragedies and invigorates the grisly melodramas.
