Euryanthe is a grand, historically romantic opera in three acts by Carl Maria von Weber, with a libretto by Helmina von Ch zy. Premiering in 1823, it is a pivotal work in the development of German Romantic opera. This edition presents the full score, allowing musicians and scholars to fully appreciate Weber's innovative orchestration and dramatic vocal writing.
The opera, set in medieval France, tells a complex tale of love, betrayal, and redemption. Its intricate plot and emotionally charged music showcase Weber's mastery of the operatic form. Though less frequently performed than some of Weber's other operas such as "Der Freisch tz", "Euryanthe" is admired for its sophisticated musical language and dramatic intensity.
This edition offers a valuable resource for those studying the history of opera and German Romanticism, as well as for performers interested in reviving this significant work. Weber's influence on later composers, including Wagner, is clearly evident in "Euryanthe", making it an essential part of the operatic canon.
