No book has comprehensively listed opera repertories. Little, in sum, has been written about any of the smaller companies and houses located in non-English-speaking countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This is the most comprehensive reference book ever written on opera companies and houses in Western Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand--over 300, from the well known to the smaller. Each entry includes a history of the opera house or company, the works (title and composer) and type of productions offered, company staff, world and country premieres, repertory, and practical information on the theater's address, nearby hotel accommodations and how to order tickets. Most entries conclude with a bibliography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNoted opera expert and international opera correspondent, \u003cb\u003eKaryl Lynn Zietz\u003c\/b\u003e writes for \u003ci\u003eOpera Now, Opera-Opera\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eOper Orpheus International.\u003c\/i\u003e She is also the author of \u003ci\u003eOpera Companies and Houses of the United States\u003c\/i\u003e (1995, paperback 2008) and lives in Washington, D.C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 500\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 9.78 x 7.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 19, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53176981258547,"sku":"9780786438983","price":96.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/h4OtZRAGJZ9780786438983.webp?v=1774601571","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/opera-companies-and-houses-of-western-europe-canada-australia-and-new-zealand-a-comprehensive-illustrated-reference-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
