Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

It only remains to submit this work to opera-goers with the hope that it may add to their enjoyment and prove a valuable addition to their libraries.

Book Synopsis The Standard Oratorios by : George P. Upton
Download or read book The Standard Oratorios written by George P. Upton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Standard Oratorios: Their Stories, Their Music, and Their Composers; A Handbook As in the case of the Standard Operas, the work has been prepared for the general public rather than for musicians, and as far as practicable, technical terms have been avoided. Description, not criticism, has been the purpose of the volume, and the various works are described as fully as the necessarily brief space allotted to each would allow. The utmost pains have been taken to secure historical and chronological accuracy, inasmuch as these details are nearly always matters of contro versy. The favor which has been so generously accorded to the Standard Operas leads the com piler to believe that the Standard Oratorios will also be welcomed by those who enjoy the sacred music of the great masters, and that it will prove a valuable addition to other works of musical reference.
