| Abstract | The author has assembled a selection of biographies of the great opera singers. His account of their lives and careers is enlivened with personal touches which describe these great artists as the people they really are. Illustrations show each soprano in her best-known roles and some in moments of relaxation. A valuable feature of the book is the critic?s choice of each artist's recordings. |
