What reading level is Musical History Biography And Criticism volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In 1826, however, a French version of the piece, under the title of Le Siege de Corinthe, was successfully produced at Paris ; and in this form, but with Italian words, and by Italian singers, it has been repeatedly performed, both at Paris and London, under the title of DAssedio di Co- rinto. Though, upon the whole, an inferior work, yet it possesses considerable merit.
Zelmira, first performed at Naples in 1822, contains some of Rossini's finest music ; and its comparative want of success can
... be ascribed only to the feebleness and absurdity of the drama. A dramatic poet in Italy, is generally a miserable appendage to a theatre ; an ob- ject of contumely and ridicule. Of this class seems to liave been the author of the libretto of Zelmira — the worthy Signer Tottola, whom we had occasion to men- tion a little while ago. If the libretto of a modern Italian opera is at all tolerable, it is when the poet has luckily stumbled upon some subject, the capabilities of which for dramatic efiect he has not been able to destroy.
