From the cover write-up : |> Richard Strauss's "Der Rosenkavalier", one of the most beloved comedies of all opera, inaugurates "The Metropolitan Opera Classics Library", a distinguished aeries of books created to honor the one-hundredth anniversary of the Metropolitan Opera and to bring to readers a greater appreciation of opera as literature. Hugo von Hofmannsthal's magical story, to which Strauss set his music in the first decade of the twentieth century, has been specially adapted for this volume by Anthony Burgess, himself a master novelist, composer, and literary critic. |> His "Cavalier of the Rose" is, from start to finish, an enchanting and scintillating retelling of Hofmannsthal's witty, satirical - and touching - libretto about beauty, age, and love among the Viennese aristocracy of the mid-eighteenth century. Included is the complete Libretto in German and English, and a wealth of illustrations, featuring the story of "Der Rosenkavalier" in photographs selected from the Metropolitan Opera's current production. there are, as well, photographs from earlier productions, as well as some of Strauss himself. <| (From the cover write-up) SERIES : The Metropolitan Opera Classics Library (No. 1) SERIES EDITOR : Robert Sussman Stewart TITLE : Der Rosenkavalier - Comedy for Music in three Acts MUSIC : Richard Strauss LIBRETTO : Hugo von Hoffmannsthal MODERN STORY ADAPTATION : Anthony Burgess INTRODUCTION : George R.
