5 Volumes - Airs And Ariettas From The Late 18th Century Opera - Engraved Scores - Lyrics + Music

Very nice set of 5 dummy volumes, containing a large set of opera airs and ariettas, among the most famous of the end of the 18th century (18th). Some rare works only have a score, on two pages, others, most of them, more detailed on several pages. All have the words and music. Some with an indication of the authors (for the rest, I did some research), sometimes it is also indicated where these scores are sold. Half-leather binding. Solid but in used condition (trimmed, rubbed, one spine split). Clean interior, without foxing, wormholes or old traces of humidity.
