The Black Dog Opera Library is one of the most popular, informative, and budget-friendly ways to enjoy all the great operas.

The marriage between words and music has never been better produced. And more popularly priced. Each volume includes two compact discs with the complete opera, as well as a hardcover book containing the libretto in it original language and an English translation with annotated commentary and expert commentary. Stunning color photographs illustrate the history of the opera and the production's performers, including Grace Bumbry, Birgit Nilsson, Renata Scotto and Franco Corelli. The slipcased set includes Aida, Carmen, Madama Butterfly, La Boheme, La Traviata and The Marriage of Figaro; each volume is also priced individually. Break out the bubbles ... that's "bubbles" as in Beverly Sills, the star of La Traviata.
This collection is not only a compilation of popular and representative operas. It is a collection of great versions including singers like Mirella Freni, Franco Corelli, Nicolai Gedda, etc. The books are beautifully ilustrated with photos, draws and their content is very interesting. I think that if you are a fan of Opera, you must get this collection.
The most COMPLETE system available for learning opera!
