Description

Traditional Italian operatic singing became 'modern' in the decades that span the turn of the 20th century and this book identifies and explores the formative elements of this multifaceted 'modernity', and the broader cultural context in which it emerged. Analysis of early vocal recordings and vocal methods and drawing on archival research in London, Milan, Rome and Buenos Aires, the book connects discussions of vocality and operatic culture with aesthetic and cultural shifts in society.
