First Edition
Stiff boards. Condition: Good. Alexandre Serebriakoff (illustrator). 37, [3] pages. Decorative front and back covers. Illustrated endpapers. Color Frontis illustrations. Illustrations. Portions of musical score. Includes Foreword; About "The Ring of the Nibelung"; "The Story of Rheingold--The Prelude"; Scene One; Scene Two; Scene Three; and Scene Four. Also includes Suggested Recordings. Adapted by Robert Lawrence, and illustrated (in color and in black and white) by Alexandre Serebriakoff. The Metropolitan Opera Guild wrote that to enjoy Richard Wagner's great cycle, "The Ring of the Nibelung," it is important to hear the Rhine flowing from the first notes of the prelude, to recognize the gleaming fold and the majestic castle of the gods from the theme chosen by the composer to represent them. Accordingly the Guild offers this book, hoping that the vast pattern of heaven and earth and underworld may become clear in its pages, and what which increased understanding it will bring increased pleasure. This is the form of the opera story for younger readers, authorized by the Metropolitan Opera Guild. A simple retelling of the story, with main themes introduced as part of the story. Fully illustrated in color. The Metropolitan Opera Guild was established in 1935 to broaden the base of support for the Metropolitan Opera, promote greater interest in opera, and develop future audiences by reaching out to a wide public and serving as an educational resource that provides programs, publications, materials and services to schools, families, individuals, and community groups nationwide. The Guild was the brainchild of Eleanor Robson Belmont, a retired actress and the first female member of the board of directors of the Metropolitan Opera. She believed opera truly belongs to the people, and wished to provide them with more ways to connect to and enjoy the art form. The Guild provides programs and services in many areas designed to further these goals. The Authorized Edition of The Metropolitan Opera Guild, Inc. Presumed first printing thus.
