Sinkó György operaénekes önéletrajzi regénye kendőzetlenül, őszinte hangvétellel mutatja be pályáját, családját és kollégáit. Másokkal és saját magával szemben egyaránt kritikus, ugyanakkor szép emléket állít mindazoknak, akik segítették útján.
Now a byword for beauty, Verdi’s operas were far from universally acclaimed when they reached London in the second half of the nineteenth century. Why did some critics react so harshly? Who were they, and what biases and prejudices animated them? When did their antagonistic attitude change? And why did opera managers continue to produce Verdi’s works? Massimo Zicari’s Verdi in Victorian London reconstructs the reception of Verdi’s operas in London from 1844, when a first critical account was published in the pages of The Athenaeum, to 1901, when Verdi’s death received extensive tribute in The Musical Times.
