A repertoire anthology of opera arias from roles specific to the alto, with special attention to the appropriate vocal criteria (range, tessitura, specifics, type of aria) and the practical aspects of musical and theatrical nature (style, era, role, type, national provenance). Each aria includes background information on the composer and librettist, the work, the vocal range, alternate versions, and casting considerations; a short synopsis of the opera's plot; and a scene description from the singer's perspective. Pronunciation aids for each aria are available as a download.
