Original

Arrangement of Gluck's 'Iphigenia in Aulis'. Concert version ending of the overture WWV 77. WWV 87. with a documentation on Wagner's German translation of the libretto and his further analysis of the work. Composed by Richard Wagner. 1813-1883. Edited by Christa Jost. This edition. RWA 120-40. Cloth-cover. Complete edition. Complete Editions. Richard Wagner - Complete Works Band 20. IV. Score and critical commentary. 524 pages. Published by Schott Music. SD.49041613. ISBN 9790001148665. A surprising title. Although Wagner remained true to his favourite genre with his arrangement of Gluck's 'Iphigenie en Aulide', but the connection to Gluck's tonal language is not immediately evident. Nevertheless, the work attracted him 'especially because of its subject'. The composition was shortened and the text of the piece completely changed. Wagner even made changes in the instrumentation, thus giving the music of Gluck a new touch.
