The Business of Opera
The study of the business of opera has taken on new importance in the present harsh economic climate for the arts. This book presents research that sheds new light on a range of aspects concerning marketing, audience development, promotion, arts administration and economic issues that beset professionals working in the opera world. The editors' aim has been to assemble a coherent collection of essays that engage with a single theme (business), but differ in topic and critical perspective. The collection is distinguished by its concern with the business of opera here and now in a globalized market. This includes newly commissioned operas, sponsorship, state funding, and production and marketing of historic operas in the twenty-first century.
Mord in der Frankfurter Oper
OPERN SINGEN, EINE FREMDSPRACHE SPRECHEN UND MORDE AUFKLÄREN Das ist alltägliche Arbeit für Myra Barnett, eine Amerikanerin an der Frankfurter Oper, an der sie ihren ersten Vertrag als Chorsängerin hat. MORD ODER FOUL PLAY? Eine Kollege kommt auf mysteriöse Weise ums Leben bei einem „Unfall“ auf der Bühne, und sie ist fest entschlossen zu beweisen, dass es Mord war. Kann sie den steifen deutschen Inspektor davon überzeugen, dass es so war? Und wie kann sie Beweise finden, um ihn zu überzeugen? DIE HANDLUNG ENTWICKELT SICH Als sie die Besitztümer ihres Kollegen durchsieht, stößt sie auf viele Geheimnisse aus seiner Vergangenheit, die sie noch nicht kannte, vor allem eine frühere Liebesgeschichte in einem anderen Land. Faszinierend. VERDAMMT SEI DIESE FRAU Ich muss etwas tun, um diese Frau zu stoppen, die sich in alles einmischt und versucht zu beweisen, dass er tatsächlich ermordet wurde. Vielleicht sollte sie auch einen Unfall haben.
Opera Companies and Houses of Western Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand
Although books have been written about various opera houses throughout the world, no one work has covered more than a relatively small number of the larger, well known companies and houses, and none have made more than brief mention of the smaller houses. No book has comprehensively listed opera repertories. Little, in sum, has been written about any of the smaller companies and houses located in non-English-speaking countries. This is the most comprehensive reference book ever written on opera companies and houses in Western Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand--over 300, from the well known to the smaller. Each entry includes a history of the opera house or company, the works (title and composer) and type of productions offered, company staff, world and country premieres, repertory, and practical information on the theater's address, nearby hotel accommodations and how to order tickets. Most entries conclude with a bibliography.

Acoustics and the Performance of Music
This classic reference on musical acoustics and performance practice begins with a brief introduction to the fundamentals of acoustics and the generation of musical sounds. It then discusses the particulars of the sounds made by all the standard instruments in a modern orchestra as well as the human voice, the way in which the sounds made by these instruments are dispersed and how the room into which they are projected affects the sounds.

Revealing much about the workings of the musical world, these conversations will not only be essential reading for composers and composition students, but also contemporary music lovers more generally
