Encounters with VerdiMarcello Conati Cornell University Press, 1986 - 417 pages An anthology of reminiscences, interviews, memoirs, and essays by a wide-ranging group of people--journalists, musicians, impresarios, or chance acquaintances--who met the reclusive and secretive composer at various moments during his long life. Each entry has a relevant place within the chronology of Verdi's life, and every reference to an unfamiliar event or name in the text is explained in the copious footnotes. |
