Excerpt from The Standard Operas: Their Plots, Their Music, and Their Composers; A Handbook Being to give musically uneducated lovers of opera a clear understanding of the works they are likely to hear, and thus heighten their enjoyment. In a word, the operas are described rather than criticised. And the work is presented with as much thorough ness as seemed possible considering the necessarily brief space allotted to each. In the preparation of the Handbook, the compiler acknowledges his indebt edness to Grove's excellent Dictionary of Music for dates and other statistical information and he has also made free use of standard musical works in his library for historical events connected with the per formance and composition of the operas. 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.

Excerpt from A Guide to the Opera There is a very strong tendency at the present day to represent great works without cuts and entirely in accordance with the composer's inten tions. The reverence of the Wagnerites for their idol is responsible for this movement, which has now spread to the works of Mozart. There is therefore no necessity for me to apologize for treat ing each work as fully as limited space would allow.

Excerpt from The Opera Goers' Complete Guide: Comprising Two Hundred and Twenty-Nine Nine Opera Plots With Musical, Numbers and Casts Lyrical drama in three acts by Niccola Spinelli. Libretto founded upon the work of Goffredo Cognetti by Eugene Checchi. Cast: Mother Mary - Soprano. Her children Sewell - Soprano, Luigino - Tenor. Ciccillo - Baritone. Pascale, innkeeper - Basso. Pichillo - Tenor. Time, the present. First production, Cologne, 1894. Act I. Acquaquilia Street "at the lower harbour." Pichillo, Pascale and Luigino are gambling with other members of the Camorra. Maria attempts to free her son of his passion for gambling but fails. Ciccillo quarrels with his companions, while in another group Maria and Sesella endeavour to pacify the son and brother, who, however, retaliates by deriding his sister for her love for Ciccillo. When the others have departed, Ciccillo detains Sesella and proposes flight. Luigino, who has been listening, attempts to stab Ciccillo, but is prevented by Maria and Sesella. Ciccillo, formerly in love with Maria, determines to revenge himself against her by compelling Sesella to lead a degraded life and by making Luigino a convict. Pascale appears shouting that the Camorra has been betrayed. Ciccillo, who committed this traitorous act through love of power, stands calmly by, but is suspected by Maria. Act II. Interior of Pascale's inn. Pichillo and Luigino are singing with a chorus of boon companions, when Ciccillo enters the inn and strikes Luigino in the face. Swearing vengeance Luigino is thrust out by his companions while Ciccillo accuses him of treason. When alone Ciccillo deplores his past life and vows to live for vengeance alone.

Excerpt from A Guide to Modern Opera The scores of the new works not only demand increase of numbers, but constantly call for strange instruments, barbaric instruments, instruments that have become obsolete, and new instruments. Conspicuous among the latter are the Celesta and the Heckelphone (see pages 215 and There seems to be a growing fondness for the sound of bells and the throb of drums; and Puccini has even tried the humming voice used as an instrument in the introduction to the last Act of M adama Butterfly.
