As composed by Jonathan Miller. Applause Books. With VHS Video. 4.6x8 inches. Published by Applause Books. (HL.00314095) Through the climactic scene of La Traviata the good doctor clowned, interpreted, gestured and flung his eminently quotable metaphors at us and a performance began miraculously to take shape. The problem for singers is that opera is difficult enough as music, let alone as stagecraft...Miller cajoled, joked, visibly eased tensions between contending forces, provided props, explained nuances. And by the end, drama had emerged from opera. MAGIC, UNDERPINNED BY A GREAT DEAL OF HARD WORK. - The Listener Browse Similar Items in: Acting Instructional Books
