• Sommario/riassunto: 'Recognition in Mozart's Operas' is a thoughful treatise that uses both literary and musicological methods to illuminate some of Mozart's best-loved operas. Waldoff argues that, rather than offering the simple happy endings or tragic climaxes of 'easier' operas, many of Mozart's work features scenes of recognition-moments.
