4.0 out of 5 stars The Title Speaks for Itself, May 21, 2000
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Great Opera Stars in Historic Photographs: 343 Portraits from the 1850's to the 1940's (Paperback)
As the title states, this is a collection of historic photos (all black and white) of pre-1950 opera stars. These are high quality prints in a soft-cover volume. The photos contain very brief biographical sketches of the subjects, including dates, voice classification and area of principle activity. This is an invaluable tool for the historic opera buff. While some of the photos are standard issue, most are unique or from the author's personal collection. Now, when you hear the names Caruso, Ruffo, Pinza, Ponselle, Melba, etc., you can see what these great singers looked like -- usually in full costume.
