Braam, Gunther – The reception of Herculanum din the contemporary press
Date
2015-6Description
How can the success of an opera in its own time be examined and studied? Quite simply, by working out the number of performances and the total amount of receipts generated, then by creating – and assessing – the most extensive dossier possible of the reviews which appeared in the contemporary press.
From the CD-Book Heculanum de Félicien David (Palazzetto Bru Zane, collection Opéra français, 2015). Translation: Mark Wiggins.
