Sergei Prokofiev Fiery Angel Original Script Translated Christopher Hassall 1955 For Sale

Fiery Angel by Sergei Prokofiev.

Original script translated from the French by Christopher Hassall. No date is given but probably printed around 1955.

57 pages.

This is the first English translation of Prokofiev’s Fiery Angel, Arguably his most famous opera

It is clearly a work in progress. There are spelling errors in the title page. This is probably down to ‘Joan Page’ who duplicated the script not the man toured with Ivor Novello or wrote the noted biographies of both Rupert Brooke and Edward Marsh.

A fascinating little Prokofiev treasure.
