Description :

Gluck Iphigenie auf Tauris (Vienna version 1781) (Vocal Score) Music drama in four acts Following upon the great success of “Iphigénie en Tauride”, Gluck arranged the popular drama of human passions, guilt and unconditional friendship once again for Vienna’s Burgtheater, where it was premièred in 1781. Especially remarkable is the masterly orchestration, which, among other things, turns the forces of Nature into a character in the drama and projects a striking contrast between civilization and savagery. Now Bärenreiter is issuing the carefully revised and corrected vocal score in a new engraving adapted to meet current standards. - Revised and newly engraved - Detailed foreword (Ger/Eng) on the work’s genesis and reception history, together with a summary of the plot - Practical, easy-to-play piano reduction - Performance material available for hire BA05843-72 - Full Score, hardback, available for sale BA02281
