Hardback. Condición: New. Reprint. W. H. Auden called opera the "last refuge of the High Style," and considered it the one art in which the grand manner survived the ironic levelings of modernity. He began writing libretti soon after he arrived in America in 1939 and abandoned his earlier attempts to write public, political dram…a. Opera gave him the opportunity to rise to the high style in public, not in an attempt to elevate his own status as a poet, but in service of the heroic voice of the singers. These works present their mythical actions with a direct intensity unlike anything in even his greatest poems. In this volume of Auden and Chester Kallman's libretti, extensive historical and textual notes trace the history of the production and revision of the works and provide full texts of early scenarios, as well as abandoned and rewritten scenes. Almost all the works included here were previously published in incomplete and often inaccessible editions--or were never published at all. The book prints for the first time the full text of Paul Bunyan, Auden's first libretto, which he wrote for music by Benjamin Britten.It also includes Auden and Kallman's The Rake's Progress, written for Igor Stravinsky, and Delia, written for Stravinsky but never set to music. The book continues with Auden and Kallman's two libretti written for music by Hans Werner Henze, Elegy for Young Lovers and The Bassarids, and their adaptation of Love's Labour's Lost, composed by Nicolas Nabokov. It also contains their translation of The Magic Flute, with its scenes reordered for greater dramatic coherence and added dialogue for sharper mythical significance, and their antimasque, The Entertainment of the Senses, for music by John Gardner. The book contains two radio plays--The Dark Valley, a monologue written by Auden alone, and The Rocking Horse Winner, written with James Stern and based on a story by D. H. Lawrence.Also included are the unpublished masque that Auden wrote for Kallman's twenty-second birthday, the unpublished versions of The Dutchess of Malfi that Auden prepared with Bertolt Brecht, scenarios for a film script and a libretto that were never completed, Auden's narrative for the medieval Play of Daniel, two narratives for documentary films, and his song lyrics written for Man of La Mancha before the producer decided to use a different lyricist.

Hardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 760 pages. Published in 1993. Definitive collection of writings for opera and drama. One of the greatest literary achievements by Wystan Hugh Auden and his collaborator, Chester Kallman. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and…should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only and as part of The Complete Works of W. H. Auden by Princeton University Press. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents W. H. Auden's and Chester Kallman's "Libretti And Other Dramatic Writings". The prodigious and enduring contribution to the performing arts by two literary giants. "Opera gave him the opportunity to rise to the High Style, not in an attempt to elevate his own status, but in service of the heroic voices of the singers. The works present their actions with an intensity unlike anything in even his greatest poems" (Publisher's blurb). Among many gems, a few stand out: Auden's and Kallman's "The Rake's Progress" for Igor Stravinsky; their libretti for Hans Werner Henze's "Elegy For Young Lovers" and "The Bassarids"; and their celebrated translation of "The Magic Flute" and adaptation of "Love's Labour Lost". Possessing a more natural gift for the theater, Chester Kallman became Auden's full-fledged co-creator (and lover), writing complete parts while working with Auden on the poet's assignments. Their masterpiece, "The Rake's Progress", is recounted by Robert Craft, Stravinsky's collaborator, as having been a seamless joint venture. On the vintage bookplate this copy comes with is handwritten evidence that HE, not Auden, wrote the tender, moving farewell of Baba The Bearded Lady from "The Rake's Progress: "I shall go back and grace the stage / where manner rules and wealth attends / Can I deny my time its rage? / My self-indulgent intermezzo ends. Chester Kallman". An absolute "must-have" title for W. H. Auden and Chester Kallman collectors. This title is a great book. Laid-in is a 5 X 3 inch vintage bookplate on which Chester Kallman wrote in blue ink-pen the parting words of Baba The Bearded Lady from "The Rake's Progress", demonstrating his full-fledged collaboration on the masterly libretto of Stravinsky's only opera. As far as we know, this is the only copy (with Signed And Lined Bookplate) of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Chester Kallman, who died in 1975, signed the vintage bookplate, NOT the book. A rare set thus. 1 signed and lined vintage postcard. Two of the greatest literary artists of the 20th century. A fine collectible set. ISBN 0691033013. Signed by Author.
