Renowned German music critic Joachim Kaiser presents an encyclopaedic, A-to-Z compendium of every significant character across Mozart's operatic canon — from the scheming Don Alfonso in Così fan tutte to the enchanting peasant girl Zerlina in Don Giovanni — illuminating each figure's dramatic function, psychological depth, and musical significance with authoritative precision.\n\nKaiser's writing brims with scholarly rigour and passionate enthusiasm, making this volume as accessible to the curious newcomer as it is indispensable to the seasoned opera-goer. Originally published in German, the text draws on Kaiser's decades of experience as one of Europe's foremost music critics, offering interpretive insights that cut to the heart of Mozart's genius for characterisation. Richly detailed and compellingly argued, this is a work that will leave any reader wondering how they ever attended a Mozart opera without it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130980245723,"sku":"2026100007282-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/131648a5-9bcb-4b60-8e76-4c702d8b2964.png?v=1786593498","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100007282-secondhand-whos-who-in-mozarts-operas-from-alfonso-to-zerlina","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
