The Great Operas of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is a detailed account of the life and work of Mozart by Gustav Kobbe, with a particular focus on his operatic compositions. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 - 1791) was a seminal German composer of the classical era. He produced over 600 individual works, many of which are now considered to be pinnacles of symphonic, chamber, concertante, and choral music. This fascinating volume is highly recommended for lovers of classical music and is not to be missed by those with an interest in the life and work of one of it’s greatest figures. Gustav Kobbe (1857 - 1918) was an American author and music critic famous for his guide to the operas, The Complete Opera Book, (1919). Other notable works by this author include: The Ring of the Nibelung (1887), Wagner’s Life and Works (1890), and New York and its Environs (1891). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of the theatre.
