First Intermissions: Twenty-one Great Operas Explored, Explained and Brought to Life from the Met - Softcover
Synopsis
Millions of opera fans tune in faithfully to the Metropolitan Opera's famous Saturday radio series. For the last twelve years one of the most popular guests on this programme has been M. Owen Lee, a Catholic priest and classics scholar, who, during the first intermission, often offers live commentary on the opera aired that day. Brimming with opera lore, love of fine music, and humour, Father Owen Lee's talks are famous for making opera relevant to modern concerns. Now, in First Intermissions, Father Lee presents twenty-one of his finest radio talks, illuminating some of the best loved operas in the current repertoire, including masterworks by Mozart, Verdi, Wagner, Puccini, and Strauss.
