Parisian Societies and Spaces in the Second Empire
Description
Mark Everist reveals for the first time a repertory of operas destined for performance in various forms of domestic environment found in Paris during the Second Empire (1850s-60s). He examines the repertory, its creators, and consumers through the lenses of urbanism, history and culture, and invites readers to take an entirely new look at the history of music on the Parisian stage.
