Reviews

"“Ultimately, The Operetta Empire makes a powerful case for us to engage with operetta afresh with a new awareness of its complicated ambitions, the ambivalent mixture of emotions it conveys, and its difficult reception in history. . . . It all adds up to a deeply satisfying and fascinating book that no one interested in operetta—or this period of Vienna’s musical history—will want to miss.” * Opera Magazine * ""This is an excellent study of the musical, historical, economic, social, and political background of the Silver Age Viennese operetta, which is generally supposed to have begun with Franz Lehár’s composition The Merry Widow in 1905. Baranello brings operetta into the mainstream of musicological studies, continuing a trend toward scholarly consideration of popular forms of music theater, such as the American musical."" * CHOICE *"
