Presents a series of brief but in all essentials informative sketches of the careers and achievements of important musical composers. This book concerns itself with those whose endeavours were directed for the most part to the upbuilding and development of serious opera, the list commencing with Christoph Willibald Gluck, whose stage works may be said to date farthest back in the current standard repertory of the world's principal opera houses.
