Book Description:

The Oxford Handbook of Faust in Music testifies to the spectacular impact the Faust theme has exerted over the centuries. The Handbook's three-part organization enables readers to follow the evolution of Faust in music across time and stylistic periods, suggesting that these musical compositions are not mere retellings of the story, but contribute significant insights of their own.
