Libretto Collection
Because the opera libretto can also be read!
The true companion for music lovers and theater lovers. The Libretto Collection at Pierre Turcotte Editor aims to highlight librettists, authors who often remain in the shadow of composers of operas and other dramas or comedies set to music. Classics in all languages, made famous by their musical settings, but whose texts have too often been relegated to the background. To discover or rediscover. Titles in English are in bold.
