Reviews

We may know vaguely that nineteenth-century popular theatre depended on mu-sic for its sensational effects, but Michael Pisani's study of the subject takes us into the creative systems of the musicians and their theatrical collaborators who produced those effects, and then into the theatre to feel how they worked. --James Parakilas, author, The Story of Opera
