Condition: Bueno. : Opera Workshop: Studies in Understanding and Interpretation es un libro que explora las convenciones únicas de la ópera, diferenciándola de la música orquestal y el teatro hablado. El libro analiza cómo funciona la amalgama de música y drama, tanto para el público como para los participantes, como cantantes, productores y directores. A través de ejemplos de óperas conocidas, se demuestra cómo una respuesta sensible a la música puede enriquecer la acción escénica y el ritmo dramático. El libro examina la relación entre el escenario y la orquesta, cubriendo tradiciones operísticas donde la música instrumental apoya al cantante, y explorando la emancipación de la orquesta para proporcionar ambiente y una dimensión sinfónica. También se incluye un capítulo sobre el uso del habla en la ópera cómica y el Singspiel.
