Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Stories of Famous Operas
It is hoped that these sketches will either enable the reader to recall beautiful scenes once beheld upon the stage, and to hear again in memory the beautiful melodies with which they are connected, or give non-opera-goers a faint idea of performances Which have given pleasure to thousands, and which, we trust, may long continue to charm all true music-lovers.
