The Phantom Librarian recommends: Opera Wars: Inside the World of Opera and the Battles for Its Future by Caitlin Vincent

As a big fan of opera music, when I came across this book on Goodreads, I had to check this out and read this book. The author gives the reader the various perspectives and behind the scenes look into the world of Opera based on 29 interviews from opera professionals ranging from singers to opera directors that the author interviewed for this book. It was very interesting to learn about the various things that go on behind the scenes in the Opera profession from how the opera directors plan their upcoming seasons to the daily lives of opera singers in the field. This is a great read for anyone who loves opera, music, and music history. I highly recommend it and it was a very quick and informative read.

You can find this book and others by searching by author or title in the Noble Catalog:
