Scope and Contents

From the Series:

Richard Strauss gave Sachse a sketchbook and a first-edition piano-vocal score for Die ägyptische Helena. The two men worked closely on the 1928 Hamburg production of that opera. The collection also includes materials for a German-language adaptation of Una cosa rara, the 1786 opera by Vicente Martín y Soler (with original libretto by Lorenzo da Ponte), including program notes written by Sachse. Sachse’s collection also included an 1824 baptismal record, the name on which is indecipherable.
