It is hard to believe that the Grand Old Dame of Opera is over four hundred
years old. In the dim and distant past, as it was developing in Italy, it
immediately became immensely popular. As well it might! Because opera is an
unusual genre. It is a theatre play written through the "word" of music and
acted out by musicians. It is governed by its own laws: there is no incidental
music, every note and every sound must allow the action unfolding on stage the
ability to express the protagonist's condition and characters. The Grand Old
Dame of Opera has her own secrets, and she reveals these only to her most loyal
devotees. Love opera and it will tell you about the voices with which its heroes
"speak", how a singer becomes a character and how to draw a character's portrait
or depict a landscape with the help of music. Discover these secrets, and
Opera will grant you permission to enter her magical world.
