Review # 1 was written on 2008-06-01 00:00:00 Craig Fiebiger Ma Madame at the Mississippi University for Women introduced me to the joys of opera via a film (Le Maitre de Musique, 1988). This book enabled me to explore it more intelligently, without having to resort to a "For Dummies" reference. :) I was listening to a Pavarotti's Opera Made Easy cd this afternoon driving back from voting, having been through a pretty depressing few days, and I realized after all this time what it is that I like about opera--it's BIG! I have no idea what they are saying, but when they say (sing) it, they say it in a HUGE way, and somehow that allows me a bit of release. Funny how insights just happen randomly...
