What reading level is The Standard Operas Their Plots And Their Music book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The demon claims him ; but Viviane, remembering the words of the Fay Morgana, stabs herself and thus balks him of his expectant prey.
Like Wagner's operas, " Merlin " has its motives, the principal ones being that of the demon, or the evil principle, and two love motives. In its general treatment it is also Wagnerish. The first scene opens with the spirited message of Lancelot to Glendower, beseeching Merlin's aid for the hard- MERLIN.
123 pressed Arthur. It is followed by the strains of Merlin...'s harp in the castle and his assurance of victory, and these in turn by very descriptive in- cantation music summoning the demon and the supernatural agencies which will compass the defeat of Arthur's enemies. Then comes the interview between the demon and the Fay Morgana, in which he learns the secret of Merlin's weakness. In the next scene Arthur returns from his victory over the Saxons to the tempo of a stirring march, and ac- companied by the joyous choruses of women. A vigorous episode, in which Bedwyr, one of Arthur's knights, is charged with treachery, is followed by Merlin's chant of victory with chorus accompani- ment.
