Ralph P. Locke deposited Beyond the exotic: How in the group
Victorian Studies on Humanities Commons 7 years, 10 months agoCommentators often express disappointment that the music for the main characters in _Aida_ is not more distinctive, i.e., does not make much use of the exotic styles that mark the work’s ceremonial scenes and ballets.
