Excerpt from The Standard Operas: Their Plots, Their Music, and Their Composers; A Handbook Being to give musically uneducated lovers of opera a clear understanding of the works they are likely to hear, and thus heighten their enjoyment. In a word, the operas are described rather than criticised. And the work is presented with as much thorough ness as seemed possible considering the necessarily brief space allotted to each. In the preparation of the Handbook, the compiler acknowledges his indebt edness to Grove's excellent Dictionary of Music for dates and other statistical information and he has also made free use of standard musical works in his library for historical events connected with the per formance and composition of the operas. It only remains to submit this work to opera-goers with the hope that it may add to their enjoyment and prove a valuable addition to their libraries.

As many new operas have been produced since The Standard Operas was first published, these have been included in' the new edition, although it is as yet uncertain whether some of them will become standard in the strict sense of the word. In a work of this kind, indeed, the selection of standard Operas must be somewhat arbitrary. It is difficult to say where the line should be drawn. The writer's aim has been to acquaint his reader with the prominent Operas of the past and the present, assuming that it may be well to know their story and musical construction whether they retain their places upon the stage or not.
