“Enjoyable and accessible”
The purpose of this book is to enable younger players to explore opera in an 'enjoyable and accessible way'. The result is an easy straight version of classic arias such as Nessun Dorma and Aida's Grand March coupled with a funky CD backing playalong. These are all standard mobile ring-tones and most will be known anyway so this is possibly a good way to encourage a love of the real thing. Alternatively you could wish to avoid it.
