The Valkyrie (Die Walkure): English National Opera Guide 21 (English National Opera Guides) - Softcover
Synopsis
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.

The Valkyrie
Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Fair. It started as a single idea, under the working title of Siegfried's Death, and ended as an epic four-opera cycle, Der Ring des Nibelungen. Inspired by the great Nordic and Germanic sagas, Richard Wagner created a unique statement of the interplay between love and power -- a struggle he movingly expressed through recurrent motifs of yearning and loss. Die Walkure, the second opera in the series, remains the most popular and frequently performed of the mighty Ring Cycle works.From its gripping opening -- in which the hero finds himself weaponless in the house of his enemy -- to its heartrending finale -- a father' s final farewell to his favorite daughter -- generations of listeners have thrilled and swooned to this story and its magical music. First performed as part of the complete Ring Cycle in 1876, at the grand opening of the Bayreuth Festival Theatre, Die Walkure boasts one of opera's best-known passages, the exhilarating Ride of the Walkure.This vocal score of the complete opera, with lyrics in both German and English, features a piano reduction of the orchestral part and is ideal for study, rehearsal, and concert performances.
