Book Description
The legend of the Swan Knight who rescues a princess from the forces of pagan evil is one of Christian Europe's foundation myths. Lohengrin transformed Wagner into an international figure almost overnight, and it remained his most popular work throughout the nineteenth century. Thomas Grey proposes that this was because it offered a "e;cautious taste"e; of his later works, while preserving some of the familiar traditions of French grand opera. John Deathridge asks why Wagner denied its Christian symbolism, and Janet Nelson argues that his vision of the Christian Middle Ages prefigured a modern historical approach. The English translation is by Amanda Holden.Contents: Wagner's 'Alter Ego', John Deathridge; Wagner's 'Lohengrin': between Grand Opera and Musikdrama, Thomas S. Grey; History, Women's History and beyond History in 'Lohengrin', Janet L.

Lohengrin: English National Opera Guide 47
Author: Richard Wagner
Publisher: Calder Publications Limited
ISBN:
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
The English National Opera Guides were originally conceived in partnership with the English National Opera and edited by Nicholas John, the ENO's dramaturg, who died tragically in an accident in the Alps. Most of the guides are devoted to a single opera, which is described in detail—with many articles that cover its history and information about the composer and his times. The complete libretto is included in both the original language and in a modern singing translation—except where the opera was written in English. Each has a thematic guide to the most important musical themes in musical notation and each guide is lavishly illustrated. They also contain a bibliography and a discography which is updated at each reprint. The ENO guides are widely regarded as the best series of their kind and excellent value.
