This book is the first translation into the English language of a comprehensive study of opera and its constituent parts by an accomplished writer of the Eighteenth Century. Francesco Algarotti was concerned with developing opera as drama and a move away from the elaborate formality of the Baroque to a more naturalistic style.

Robin Burgess is by profession a Catholic priest with degrees in Classics and Theology, who has had training in singing and taken part in recitals and concerts. He has a special devotion to opera in the Eighteenth Century, and in particular the works of Gluck.
