When Words Sing: Seven Canadian Libretti
Angebote / Angebote:
Meet the creators behind the words of Canadian opera in this exciting new collection of contemporary libretti. Featuring Ours by Robert Chafe, Rocking Horse Winner by Anna Chatterton, Beatrice Chancy by George Eilliott Clarke, Missing by Marie Clements, Nigredo Hotel by Ann-Marie MacDonald, Shelter by Julie Salverson, and Dog Days by Royce Vavrek, When Words Sing turns the spotlight on everything that goes into writing libretti, and answering frequently asked questions along the way.
Through supplementary interviews, essays, and illustrations, the book will examine the role of the librettist, how a libretto can inspire a composer, director, and designer, and how the relationship between words, music, sound, and design coalesces into an ageless theatrical form.
