In First Nights at the Opera, the renowned music scholar Thomas Kelly narrates the social history of European opera during its g olden age by taking us behind the scenes at the premiere performances of five ex traordinary and influential operas: Handel's Giulio Cesare (London, 1724), Mozar t's Don Giovanni (Prague, 1787), Meyerbeer's Les Huguenots (Paris, 1836), Wagner 's Das Rheingold (Bayreuth, 1876), and Verdi's Otello (Milan, 1887). What was it like to be there, to see and hear and perform these operas for the very first time? Kelly takes us behind the curtains to introduce us to the nervous compose rs, the anxious impresarios, and the performers who had never sung these words t o an audience before.
