Publisher's Synopsis
The list of landmark productions from the English National Opera in recent years, including "Rusalka", "Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk", "Billy Budd" and "Xerxes", has been long and varied, combining distinguished performance, imaginative production and innovative design. The partnership of Peter Jonas (General Director), Mark Elder (Music Director) and David Pountney (Director of Productions) ends in 1993, and this book provides an illustrated record of the Coliseum's activities in their years.
