Description

"Supported by a small group of civic-minded business leaders, the Dallas Opera during its early seasons was perhaps as close as the United States has ever come to having court opera, a modern extension of the jewel-box operas performed in the palaces of Louis XIV and Catherine the Great. Kelly and Rescigno envisioned gorgeous music for the eye and ear and sought to breathe new life into the traditional Italian and French repertory, spicing it with offerings of American premieres of lesser-known works."--Jacket.
