Trade paperback. Taccola, Umberto Ilustrador. Presumed first edition/first printing. xi, [1], 13-208 p. Illustrations. Opera singers are just like other people, only more so. Often unseen by their public and fans, they erupt in glorious, dazzling displays of human cussedness, using biting banter, one-up-manship, and even sabotage to deal with their main frustration, which is, of course, each other. The irreverent atmosphere backstage is often hilariously in contrast with the reverent hush out front. In terms of chaos on stage, yells from the balcony and intermission twaddle in the foyer, you'll meet dimwitted audience members, meatball tenors, vain soprano fatsos, stilletto-tongued conductors and old-time impresarios and general managers who didn't know their brass from their oboe. The Viennese conductor Franz Schalk said, "Every theater is an asylum, but an opera theatre is the ward for incurables. " Good. No dust jacket as issued. Signed by author. Cover has some wear and soiling.

Paperback. Taccola, Umberto Ilustrador. For the nutty world of opera backstage Opera Antics and Anecdotes describes intimate, rib-tickling glimpses of the opera profession seen through the prism of humor. These comical stories collected by the author directly from composers, conductors, superstar singers and stagehands immortalize some of the real-life blunders, bloopers, pranks, pratfalls, idiocies and sabotage in the highbrow, cutthroat art form that is opera. Readers will enjoy fabulous samples of vanity, 'bitchcraft' and shouts across the footlights. It is remarkable how many critics, audience twits and backstage bigwigs adore opera yet can't tell their brass from their oboe. 1999, First edition, first printing. A fine, unmarked copy. {"length"=>["9"], "width"=>["6"], "units"=>["Inches"]}.
