Descripci�n The libretto for this work, by playwright Henri Meilhac and journalist Philippe Gille, is based on LŽhistoire du Chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut by Abb� Pr�vost. Retaining the novelŽs eighteenth-century setting, MassenetŽs opera offers noisy crowd scenes, passionate duets, and tense melodramas, which certainly pleased the Opera-ComiqueŽs patrons - it was an instant popular success. This is the Schirmer edition of the Vocal Score, with an English version by George and Phyllis Mead.

Rese�a del editor:

English National Opera Guides are ideal companions to the opera. They provide stimulating introductory articles together with the complete text of each opera in English and the original. The story of Manon Lescaut has become part of the European imagination: she is the funloving woman who is irresistible to men. Of Massenet's many operas, she inspired the most popular one, and this libretto shows his minute attention to detail in bringing the character and the period to life. This guide opens with a general survey of Massenet's career by the musicologist G�rard Cond�, and includes two essays about this particular opera. Professor Hugh Macdonald explores the interplay of speech and song in Manon and Massenet's genius for comedy. Professor Vivienne Mylne traces the sources and context of Pr�vost's novel.
