Abstract A long-awaited resource for the young operatic singer, this annotated guide brings together many sources to start the journey toward powerful, informed performance. An extensive discussion of fach and audition repertoire is followed by over 400 arias on arias in English, French, Italian, German, and Russian. Organized by voice type, this guide treats canonical, contemporary, and obscure works in the repertoire. Each entry includes level of difficulty, voice/character type, special techniques, tessitura, and accompaniment.
