"Stelios Galatopoulos obviously loves the music and personality of Bellini. His book is constructed in a slightly curious way. When each opera appears, it is given a long encyclopedic entry, followed by a performance history. He is better at putting the first performances in context than he is at evoking the wider musical and historical background."Galatopoulos, Stelios is the author of 'Bellini Life, Times, Music, 1801-35' with ISBN 9781860744051 and ISBN 1860744052.
