Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. This is "The Metropolitan Opera Classics Library" edition of "Der Rosenkavalier" composed by Richard Strauss. The libretto was written by Hugo von Hofmannsthal ; the modern story adaptation was done by Anthony Burgess; there is an Introduction by George H. Marek. "The Metropolitan Opera Classics Library" was produced under the general editorship of Robert Sussman Stewart. The copy here presented, previously owned (and reinforced by that owner along its edges with tape), is the 1982 Little, Brown and Company First Edition in Paperback format (issued in Boston simultaneously with the hardcover and a Special Edition). **************************************** From the cover write-up : |> Richard Strauss's "Der Rosenkavalier", one of the most beloved comedies of all opera, inaugurates "The Metropolitan Opera Classics Library", a distinguished aeries of books created to honor the one-hundredth anniversary of the Metropolitan Opera and to bring to readers a greater appreciation of opera as literature. Hugo von Hofmannsthal's magical story, to which Strauss set his music in the first decade of the twentieth century, has been specially adapted for this volume by Anthony Burgess, himself a master novelist, composer, and literary critic. His "Cavalier of the Rose" is, from start to finish, an enchanting and scintillating retelling of Hofmannsthal's witty, satirical and touching libretto about beauty, age, and love among the Viennese aristocracy of the mid-eighteenth century. Included is the complete Libretto in German and English, and a wealth of illustrations, featuring the story of "Der Rosenkavalier" in photographs selected from the Metropolitan Opera's current production. there are, as well, photographs from earlier productions, as well as some of Strauss himself. <| *************************************** SERIES : The Metropolitan Opera Classics Library (No. 1) / SERIES EDITOR : Robert Sussman Stewart / TITLE : Der Rosenkavalier - Comedy for Music in three Acts / MUSIC : Richard Strauss / LIBRETTO : Hugo von Hoffmannsthal / MODERN STORY ADAPTATION : Anthony Burgess / INTRODUCTION : George R.
