Giacomo Puccini, Giuseppe Giacosa, Luigi Illica, Henri Murger, Peter Gelb, William Berger, William Livingstone. "The Metropolitan Opera Presents Giacomo Puccini's La Boheme: Libretto, Background, and Photos." Milwaukee, WI: Amadeus Press, Hal Leonard, 2014. English and Italian languages. Softcover. Text with full-color photos. 9 x 6 x 0.5 in. 23 x 15 x 1.5 cm. 15 oz. viii, 186 pp. Sticker residue on spine. Line indents on back cover. Smudge on half-title. Text clean. Very Good. ISBN: 9781574674446."There's a reason La Boheme has been staged at the Met more often than any other opera: Puccini's enticing music perfectly conveys the enchantment of new young love and the anguish that comes with loss and death. La Boheme , the passionate and timeless story of love among impoverished young artists in Paris, can stake its claim as the world's most popular opera. It has a marvelous ability to make a powerful first impression (even on those new to opera) and to reveal unexpected treasures after dozens of hearings. At first glance, La Boheme is the definitive depiction of the joys and sorrows of love and loss; on closer inspection, it reveals the deep emotional significance hidden in the trivial things (a bonnet, an old overcoat, a chance meeting with a neighbor) that make up our everyday lives.
