Das Zauberschwert, ein romantisch-komisches Original-Singspiel in zwey Aufzügen [German]

By Carl Friedrich Hensler

Das Zauberschwert is a German Singspiel in two acts, a collaborative work by Carl Friedrich Hensler and Joseph Eibler. This "romantic-comic original Singspiel" (romantisch-komisches Original-Singspiel) exemplifies the popular theatrical form of its time, blending spoken dialogue with musical numbers. As a Singspiel, "Das Zauberschwert" offered accessible entertainment to a broad audience, combining elements of comedy, romance, and magic.

Hensler, known for his work in popular theater, and Eibler, a composer associated with the Viennese classical tradition, bring their respective talents to bear in this work. This edition offers a glimpse into the world of late 18th-century German musical theater, reflecting the tastes and artistic trends of the period.
