Note |
The New Parsifal: An Operatic Fable by R.C. Trevelynn. |
Summary |
New insights are given on the background to staging Tannhäuser and Parsifal. Sections on the illustrations to and parodies of Parsifal extend previous research, with special emphasis on the almost forgotten stage-designer Ludwig Sievert and early reception of the opera. The inclusion of a satirical text and Trevelyan's parody reveal some of the less serious reception. |
