This post is simulcast from my blog “The Annals of Opera”.
This is the fourth in my series of post looking at my favourite operas from the 1600s to the present day (you can find previous instalments here). We’ve journeyed through the heights of Romanticism in Italy, France, and Germany in the late 19th century, and now we reach that all-important turning point, as the 20th century dawned, and high art merged with the avant-garde… for a while, at least.
