5.0 out of 5 stars
A terrific guide to the opera for beginners,
By Mary (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rigoletto (Black Dog Opera Library) (English and Italian Edition) (Hardcover)
I've always enjoyed opera music but I had trouble understanding the words and the plot. This guide gives some background on the Opera's Composer (Verdi), some historical background as well as a brief but interesting summation of the plot. The two CD's that accompany the book provide the complete audio of the opera. (Beverly Sills in the Gilda role and Sherrill Milnes in the role of Rigoletto) The Libretto provides the text of the opera both in Italian and English. I enjoyed this guide so much that I am hoping to collect the whole series.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Not the best introduction to Rigoletto,
By A Customer
This review is from: Rigoletto (Black Dog Opera Library) (English and Italian Edition) (Hardcover)
Rigoletto is a wondeful opera that can be used as an introduction for beginners who want to explore the art of operas. Although I like the concept of Black Dog Opera Library that provides an attractive book and recording of a famous opera in a bargain price, I cannot recommend this book of Rigoletto. The major drawback lies in the recording that accompaies this book. I would say it is probably the most disappointing Rigoletto ever recorded by big names in the opera world.

The 3 reviews I found here do not refer to this product!,
This review is from: Rigoletto: Full Score (Paperback)
I don't understand why the 3 reviews I found here are being displayed with this item. They are reviews for something else! Naturally, in answer to the question "Was this review helpful to you?" I will click "No" for all of them! And when I receive my copy of the Ricordi score for Rigoletto, I will definitely consider posting a real review of it.
