Title: Garsington Opera
Description: "With its lively and informative text and lavish illustrations, this handsome volume chronicles the first 22 years of Garsington Opera, from its modest beginnings on the terrace at Garsington Manor to the major festival that draws opera-lovers from far and wide today. The story of the development of Garsington Opera, the vision of the late Leonard Ingrams, impressario and host on a grand scale, is colourful and fascinating. Author Richard Osborne sheds light on the growth of the opera under Ingram's enthusiastic leadership, taken on by Anthony Whitworth-Jones for the last five years, through an extraordinarily rich and ambitious programme of productions over two decades"--Publisher's description, p.
