With an increasing number of American opera companies and workshops presenting musical theatre pieces and the inclusion of this genre in the opera program of the National Endowment for the Arts, Central Opera Service continues to serve the operatic community by making this expanded information available. Included here are 1,525 listings of sets and/or costumes for 402 opera/musical theatre works, arranged in alphabetical order by a) composers, b) title of work, c) sets and costumes, sets only, and costumes only. An address list of rental sources — companies, workshops, and commercial scenic and costume houses — includes telephone numbers, the name of the rental contact and, in the case of opera com- panies, the size of the stage. As a result of increasing performances of opera in English, many new translations have been commissioned, and they form the second part of this volume. The Addenda to the 1973-74 Directory of English Opera Translations lists 336 new translations, bringing the total of available English opera translations to 1,581. Copies of the earlier volume are available from COS, and should be used together with the current listing; each has its own source address list. A cross-reference Index by title, serving both sections of this current Directory, may be found on page 54. We acknowledge with sincere gratitude the dedicated assistance of our volunteers, Norma Litton and Fritzi Bickhardt, who helped to make this publication possible. Maria F.

  • Broadcasting the Arts: Opera on TV
    Broadcasting the Arts: Opera on TV With onstage guests directors Brian Large and Jonathan Miller & former BBC Head of Music & Arts Humphrey Burton on Wednesday 30 April BFI Southbank’s annual Broadcasting the Arts strand will this year examine Opera on TV; featuring the talents of Maria Callas and Lesley Garrett, and titles such as Don Carlo at Covent Garden (BBC, 1985) and The Mikado (Thames/ENO, 1987), this season will show how television helped to democratise this art form, bringing Opera into homes across the UK and in the process increasing the public’s understanding and appreciation. In the past, television has covered opera in essentially four ways: the live and recorded outside broadcast of a pre-existing operatic production; the adaptation of well-known classical opera for remounting in the TV studio or on location; the very rare commission of operas specifically for television; and the immense contribution from a host of arts documentaries about the world of opera production and the operatic stars that are the motor of the industry. Examples of these different approaches which will be screened in the season range from the David Hockney-designed The Magic Flute (Southern TV/Glyndebourne, 1978) and Luchino Visconti’s stage direction of Don Carlo at Covent Garden (BBC, 1985) to Peter Brook’s critically acclaimed filmed version of The Tragedy of Carmen (Alby Films/CH4, 1983), Jonathan Miller’s The Mikado (Thames/ENO, 1987), starring Lesley Garret and Eric Idle, and ENO’s TV studio remounting of Handel’s Julius Caesar with Dame Janet Baker. Documentaries will round out the experience with a focus on the legendary Maria Callas, featuring rare archive material, and an episode of Monitor with John Schlesinger’s look at an Italian Opera Company (BBC, 1958).

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.
