Richard Wagner: Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg (Cambridge Opera Handbooks) Paperback - 1994

by Warrack, John


From the publisher

This book presents a lively and informative account of Die Meistersinger von Nrnberg, including its literary sources and the evolution of the text from a light comic opera into its final form. John Warrack examines the music and historical tradition of the Mastersingers; Lucy Beckett analyzes the Hans Sachs character and reveals how Wagner communicates with his audience, both musically and dramatically; Michael Tanner suggests new ways to interpret Meistersinger as a reflection of Wagner's overall view of opera; while Patrick Carnegy provides a history of key productions. The volume contains a full synopsis, bibliography, and music examples as well as three valuable appendices.

From the rear cover

This book presents an informative and stimulating study of an opera that occupies a particular place in music-lovers' affections, yet always has more to reveal. John Warrack traces the evolution of the work from plans for a light comic opera, through all the drafts and the literary influences on them, into the eventual comedy; he then studies the music in depth.
