The Italian traditions and Puccini

In this groundbreaking survey of the fundamentals, methods, and formulas that were taught at Italian music conservatories during the 19th century, Nicholas Baragwanath explores the compositional significance of tradition in Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi, Boito, and Puccini. Baragwanath explains the varying theories and practices of the period in light of current theoretical and analytical conceptions of this music. This book offers a guide to an informed interpretation and appreciation of Italian opera by underscoring the proximity of archaic traditions to the music of Puccini.--[book jacket]
