About This Item
First Edition, First Printing. Fine in a fine dust jacket. In publisher's original blue cloth. In this oversized volume, Nancy Ellison captures stunning opera performances in hundreds of photographs by such legends as Luciano Pavarotti, Plácido Domingo, and Renée Fleming. Beginning with Pavarotti's emotional farewell performance in Tosca, In Grand Style is filled with amazing images from the Met's greatest operas. Ellison's photographs exemplify why The Met is considered the penultimate for not just opera singers but for fans as well. Award-winning photographer Nancy Ellison is the author of ten books, including The American Ballet Theatre's The Ballet Book. For more than thirty years, she has photographed distinguished personalities. Joseph Volpe is the long time general manager of the Metropolitan Opera. Joseph Clark is the technical director of The Metropolitan Opera. Large folio. Unpaginated. A stunning book.
