Nineteenth-century Paris attracted foreign musicians like a magnet. The city boasted a range of theatres and genres, a wealth of libretti and source material for them, vocal, orchestral and choral resources, set designs, scenery and costumes. This book both tracks specific aspects of this culture and examines stage music in Paris through the lens of one of its most important figures: Giacomo Meyerbeer.
