Gluck and the Opera: A Study in Musical History - Cambridge Library Collection - Music 1st edition
Ernest Newman
This influential 1895 account of Gluck's life and his achievements sets the composer in the context of eighteenth-century intellectual life. It tracks Gluck's efforts to move opera forward after a period of stagnation, fusing the Italian and French traditions and paving the way for Weber and Wagner.
