Das Rheingold - English National Opera Guide 35 (includes libretto)
Richard Wagner Price: $19.95
The opening evening of Wagner’s four-part cycle, The Ring of Nibelung,
stands apart as more naive and picturesque than the others. But it
immediately establishes the huge scale of the overall work, and the
extraordinary musical language that will be displayed throughout
It is a miracle of musical history that Wagner’s 1850 conception could be brought to completion, in an organic whole, some 25 years later
Stewart Spencer discusses the way in which Wagner fuses genuine mythology with his own invention and John Deathridge places The Rhinegold in the context of The Ring and its century
English National Opera Guides are ideal companions to the opera. They
provide stimulating introductory articles together with the complete
text of each opera in English and the original
