Summary
This celebration of opera as a living art that visualizes music explores the 'operatic body'--the actual physical bodies of the singers and audience members, as well as the represented body on stage in operas such as Death in Venice and Electra.

Bodily Charm is a passionate defense of opera as a living as well as live art. Written for both the opera lover and the specialist by a physician and a literary critic, it is an accessible and engaging interdisciplinary exploration of the operatic bodyâboth the actual physical bodies of the singers and audience members and the represented body on stage in operas such as Death in Venice, Salome, Rigoletto, Der Ring des Nibelungen, and Elektra.
