• What A Great Idea!!
30 March, 2001
This book and CD set are the perfect combination for those who are new to the world of opera and not fluent in foreign language. Better than just a synopsis, the libretto in English lets you read every word so you won't miss the humor or pathos. As a homeschooling mom, I really appreciated this set as a teaching tool. I hope to increase my collection of The Black Dog Opera Library series.

• These Black Dog Books Are Terrific!
22 July, 2008
I highly recommend the Black Dog opera books. They're the perfect way to learn about an opera: They include cd's of the opera by outstanding singers, photos of performances, historical and critical commentary, a scene-by-scene summary of the plot, and the complete libretto in both English and the original language, so you can play around with the translation if you're interested. They can't be beat.

• Outstanding Guide For Opera Novices!
14 September, 2009
The CD correlates well with the small, easily-held book so the novice can track which elements to listen for...one has the Italian arias as well as the English translation. A bonus is the worthy background material on composer Rossini. This small volume was the best preparation for attending the Verona Opera Festival in July 2009; now it serves as a wonderful way to conjure memories of the elegantly-clad cast and lilting melodies of Rossini's charming romantic comedy.
