Nineteenth-Century Opera and The Scientific Imagination / Ed. David Trippett and Benjamin Walton.

Cambridge Univ. Press  ©2019,2021

Scientific thinking has long been linked to music theory and instrument making, yet the profound and often surprising intersections between the sciences and opera during the long nineteenth century are here explored for the first time. These touch on a wide variety of topics, including vocal physiology, theories of listening and sensory communication, technologies of theatrical machinery and discourses of biological degeneration. With an introduction and index.
