<br/><br/> "The Art of Auditioning is an essential reference book for singers, accompanists and coaches, written by one of the country's best-known repetiteurs. Anthony Legge first offers advice on preparing for auditions, guiding the reader through the often complex procedures employed by opera companies within the UK and abroad. Then follows a directory of over two hundred recommenced arias, including details of range and context within the opera, together with valuable comments on how best to perform the chosen piece in front of an audition panel." -- Book cover.
