520 1 $a"In this new volume, Paul Jackson expands his survey of the broadcasts by examining the decade (1966-1976) that saw the move from the old opera house uptown to the current technological marvel at Lincoln Center. There Rudolf Bing's final six years as general manager gave way to four seasons of management turmoil until in 1976 James Levine, new to the company in 1971, was named music director and took hold of the Met's artistic future. All of this, plus 140 performances, beginning with the controversial opening-night premiere of Samuel Barber's Antony and Cleopatra, is vividly recaptured by Jackson, a musicologist with an ability to seamlessly combine engaging narrative history with cogent musical analysis and criticism."--BOOK JACKET.
