These Opera Guides are ideal companions to the opera. They provide stimulating introductory articles together with the complete text of each opera in English and the original. More than any other work in the operatic repertory, Parsifal demands a personal commitment and response.

The translation was commissioned for the first production by English National Opera in 1986. Contains: A Very Human Epic Mike Ashman Recapitulation of a Lifetime Dieter Borchmeyer Experiencing Music and Imagery in 'Parsifal' Robin Holloway 'Parsifal': Words and Music Carolyn Abbate Discussions into the Dramaturgy of 'Parsifal' Gerd Rien???cker Thematic Guide Lionel Friend 'Parsifal' poem by Richard Wagner 'Parsifal' English translation by Andrew Porter Discography Cathy Peterson Bibliography
