Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Popular Operas The object of these stories is therefore to enable the reader to follow every motion of the singers, and, even if unfamiliar with the language in which the opera is given, to have a fair idea of all that is said and done. For this reason the plots are told in detail, just as they are given, no attempt being made to embellish or modify them in any Way. Many of the sub jects are trivial, some absurd, and a few so un savory that one often wishes that the beautiful music were connected with more worthy themes. However, such as these operas are, they are given here, in the hope of enhancing the pleas 'ure of all who hear them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Opera Histories of Opera are not very numerous: there have been many articles and essays in various maga zines, dictionaries, and so forth which have presented more or less concise synopses of the gradual develop ment and growth Of the Operatic Art. Some Of these, notably the one in Grove's Dictionary, are excellent, but a work Of such bulk is not for the everyday reader, nor, generally speaking, for the amateur. Beyond these magazine and dictionary essays the number of books - at any rate in the English language - solely on Opera is very limited, and from the nature Of the case, those that exist soon get out Of date.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From the Operas The captain of the outlaw band, Fra Diavolo, was the most celebrated bandit in Italy, and fully justified his sinister name, for his daring raids and impudent roguery had made him a terror to the country-side, and the mere mention of his name caused peaceful travellers to tremble in their shoes. All previous attempts to capture the cunning out law had proved ineffectual; so when at last a troop of carbineers was sent out from Naples to lie in wait for the whole band, joy was felt in every village round about, and the peasants hoped to be freed from their dreaded enemy at last.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tancredi: A Tale of the Opera; A Novel The wounded youth, Jarl the Miller's Boy, as he was called, was raised to his feet, and it was found that his right arm was frightfully lacerated. His face was ashy pale, but he uttered no word of distress. There was something wicked and startling in the proud bearing of his compact, graceful form, blemished though it was by torn garb and mangled arm. There was a look of mingled hate and defiance in his pallid face as he glared on the fierce brute now being dragged away by the servant, - a look so strik ing in its wild brave beauty that would attract the attention of the most indifferent looker-on.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of the Wagner Opera Naturally a scholar and a dreamer, Rienzi would probably never have seen the necessity of such a thing, or ventured to attempt it, had he not seen his own little brother wantonly slain during one of the usual frays between the Orsini and Colonna factions. The murderer, a scion of the Colonna family, considered the mat ter as so trivial that he never even condescended to excuse himself, or to offer any redress to the injured parties, thus filling Rienzi's heart with a bitter hatred against all the patrician race. Secretly and in silence the young enthusiast matured his revolutionary plans, winning many adherents by his irresistible eloquence, and patiently bided his time until a suitable oppor tunity occurred to rally his partisans, openly, defy the all-powerful barons, and restore the old freedom and prosperity to Rome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Phantom of the Opera I was immensely interested by this story of the Persian. I wanted, if there were still time, to find this valuable and eccentric witness. My luck began to improve and I discovered him in his little at in the Rue de Rivoli, where he had lived ever since and where he died five months after my Visit. I was at first inclined to be suspicious; but when the Persian had told me, with child-like candor, all that he knew about the ghost and had handed me the proofs of the ghost's existence-including the strange correspond ence of Christine Daae - to do as I pleased with, I was no longer able to doubt. No, the ghost was not a myth! I have, I know, been told that this correspondence may have been forged from first to last by a man whose imagination had certainly been fed on the most seductive tales; but fortunately I discovered some of Christine's writing outside the famous bundle of let ters and, on a comparison between the two, all my doubts were removed. I also went into the past history of the Persian and found that he was an up right man, incapable of inventing a story that might have defeated the ends of justice.
