Abstract

An interview with composer and music conductor Richard Bonynge is presented. When asked why he was attracted to operas of composer Jules Massenet, Bonynge says that the variety of vocal scores in Massenet's operas fascinated him. He comments that in Massenet's operas, singers are of equal importance as is the orchestration. According to him, Massenet's opera "Le Roi de Lahore," is the most lyrical opera by Massenet.
