By Richard Simm. By Christoph Willibald Von Gluck. Arranged by Richard Simm. This edition: pdf, streaming. Classical, Opera. Score. 3 pages. Richard Simm #1318060. Published by Richard Simm (A0.1757833).This wonderful piece, sometimes known just as, "Melody", comes from Gluck's opera, "Orpheus and Euridice", and tells the sad story of how Orpheus, whose new wife has died, is determined to go and win her back from the Underworld. He almost succeeds by playing his lyre and calming the guardian spirits there, and they let the couple return to earthly life again, but on condition that Orpheus must not look back at Euridice until they reach their destination. She doesn't understand why he won't do so, and her desperate pleas for him to look at her cause him to fail, and he loses her forever...
