An Opera Dictionary from Aida to Zzzz
By David W. Barber
Cartoons by Dave Donald

David W. Barber, who has delighted readers around the world with Bach, Beethoven and the Boys, A Musician's Dictionary and other best-selling books of musical humor, is at it again. Who but the author of When the Fat Lady Sings is better suited for the highbrow hilarity and lexical laughter of this latest foray into the wacky and wonderful world of opera? From strutting singers to cantankerous composers, from ludicrous librettos to pompous prima donnas, Barber skewers them all in his satirical yet affectionate opera dictionary.
