Also contains Notes on the Text; Sources of Illustrations; and an Index. From 1952 to 1975, Martin Mayer critiqued classical recordings for Esquire, and from 1985 to 2004 he was the New York critic for Opera magazine. He wrote "The Met: One Hundred Years of Grand Opera" (1983), reviewed concerts and opera for Musical America magazine, and wrote articles for High Fidelity and Opera News. In The Times magazine, he profiled Igor Stravinsky, Herbert von Karajan, George Szell, Rudolf Bing and Marilyn Horne. His article on Andrés Segovia and his Spanish guitar vibrated with insights: "Like Dolmetsch (who resurrected the recorder), Landowska (who restored the harpsichord) and Casals (whose revisions in the technique of the cello made Bach's suites for that instrument playable in an age of exact intonation), Segovia in effect invented an instrument." This is the story of the end of the old house and the rise of Lincoln Center, the arrival of television and the immense growth of the operatic constituency in America. After a hundred crowded years of incident and personality, the Met flourishes not only in memories, but in bright modern performance--and this book tells the story. Derived from a Kirkus review: This was published on the day of the Metropolitan Opera's 100th-anniversary gala concert: a splendiferously illustrated history of the company--with a wry, informal text that manages to touch on finance, real estate, and administration as well as conductors, singers, and productions. Author/music-critic Mayer moves easily through the decades--from the building of the original opera-house and the first seasons to the Golden Age; from the Gatti years to those of Johnson and Bing. He celebrates the dozens of superstar singers, sometimes finding himself reduced to lists--but reserves the most enshrining attention for Caruso and Flagstad. He gives a lively sense of Gatti's famed management, scorns that of Johnson: "Performances were disfigured, and voices damaged, by resolute miscasting. . .Johnson knew little about running an opera house, and he never learned." As for Mr. Bing, his "feeling of cultural superiority to the press was shallowly rooted in his own personality and in traditional European attitudes toward America, not reality." And, with a nice balance between information and anecdote (drawing on a wide array of sources), there's treatment of the opera's social element, the press, the unions, the board, the orchestra, the Lincoln Center move, the City Opera rivalry, the conductor problems--all enlivened by bits of comment, especially in recent decades. An agreeable, solid survey, with fabulous, fascinating glimpses of bygone faces offstage and on.
