The Operetta Empire: Music Theater in Early Twentieth-Century Vienna

The Operetta Empire: Music Theater in Early Twentieth-Century Vienna
English | 2021 | ISBN: 0520379128 | 250 pages | EPUB | 18 MB
Case studies examine works by Lehár, Emmerich Kálmán, Oscar Straus, and Leo Fall in light of current musicological conversations about hybridity and middlebrow culture. Demonstrating a thorough mastery of the complex early twentieth‐century Viennese cultural scene, and a sympathetic and redemptive critique of a neglected popular genre, Micaela Baranello establishes operetta as an important element of Viennese cultural life—one whose transgressions helped define the musical hierarchies of its day.
