Summary
"The many and varied domestic musical arrangements of opera that circulated in Vienna provide a unique window on the world of nineteenth-century amateur music-making. This study takes a novel stance for musicology, prioritising musical arrangements over original compositions, and female amateurs' perspectives over those of composers"-- Provided by publisher
