Transcriber's Notes
Anglicized variants of German character names have been retained as they are in the original (e.g., Rhinegold for Rheingold, Logi for Loge, Friea for Freia). Obvious printer errors have been corrected without note. Some full-page illustrations have been moved to the nearest paragraph break for better readability.
To hear the music, click the [Listen] link, which will open an mp3 file. You can also download a MusicXML file of the notation by clicking the [MusicXML] link. These links may not work in e-book formats other than HTML. The music files are the music transcriber’s interpretation of the printed notation and are placed in the public domain.
