Catalogue Note
Si la première édition de 1791 du livret de ce fameux opéra de Mozart est très rarement mise en vente, la deuxième édition n'est jamais parue en vente publique ces vingt dernières années.
Rare. While the first edition of the libretto of Mozart's great Singspiel of 1791 (first performance: 30 September) is only rarely offered at auction, we have traced no record at all of the second edition at auction in the last twenty years.
