Opera

Uanset om man skal se opera for første eller 117. gang i sit liv, har man glæde af at sætte sig ind i, hvad operaen handler om. Handlingen kan i mange operaer nemlig være mildest talt indviklet, og selvom man nyder musikken, stemmepragten og scenografien, bliver oplevelsen først fuldendt, når man kan følge med i, hvad der foregår – scene for scene, akt for akt. Opera. 90 værker akt for akt gennemgår i detaljer handlingen i de hyppigst opførte og mest populære operaer. Udvalgt fra 400 års farverig operahistorie. Ledsaget af nutidige og historiske illustrationer fra opførelser i ind- og udland. LEIF V.S. BALTHZERSEN er mag.art. i musikvidenskab. Han har arbejdet med musikformidling i over 30 år og er en efterspurgt foredragsholder i hele landet.
