Review:
 * *  Histories and very brief musical descriptions of these many (some hard-to-find) operas, and plot-synopses of the more important ones. Although well done for what it sets out to do, and although the plot synopses can be valuable when they appear, more often than not it seems much more suited to the academician than the performer.

Review:
v04.n635: "Started as a virtuoso pianist. Reviewed most of the great works of music starting around 1850. Before he'd review, for e.g., a new Wagner opera, he'd obtain the score and play it through himself, so that he knew every note before the orchestra started the overture."]
