Janita R. Hall-Swadley's edition of The Collected Writings of Franz Liszt has reached its third volume with this book. The subtitle, Dramaturgical Leaves, refers to its contents: essays on musical works written for the stage, and queries about the stage and the composers and performers who worked there.
The writings show Liszt's admiration for opera and stage music of the early nineteenth century. Pieces on Gluck's Orpheus and Beethoven's Fidelio appear alongside Weber's Euryanthe and Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream, and the catalogue also mentions the collaboration of Scribe and Meyerbeer.
