Description

Explore the deep layers of contemporary opera with Opera in Performance by Clemens Risi. Part of the Routledge Advances in Theatre & Performance Studies series, this book examines the performative dimension of modern productions. It looks at why certain moments in a performance leave such a strong impact on the audience, from the physical presence of performers to the power of virtuosic and unique vocal styles. By using phenomenology and performance theory, the text explains how striking moments emerge through the connection between the stage and the spectator. It examines the tension between representation and presence, as well as the balance between the familiar and the new. This work provides a framework for understanding how stagings transform well-known scenes to create new experiences. Through critical descriptions, the book offers a practical application of these theoretical insights, making it a valuable resource for students and professionals in classical music and theatre studies.
