Recognition in Mozart's Operas
Waldoff, Jessica (Assistant Professor of Music, Assistant Professor of Music, College of the Holy Cross)
Since its beginnings, opera has depended on recognition as a central aspect of both plot and theme. Though a standard feature of opera, recognition - a moment of new awareness that brings about a crucial reversal in the action-has been largely neglected in opera studies. In Recognition in Mozart's Operas, musicologist Jessica Waldoff draws on a broad base of critical thought on recognition from Aristotle to Terence Cave to explore the essential role itplays in Mozart's operas. The result is a fresh approach to the familiar question of opera as drama and a persuasive new reading of Mozart's operas.
