Faust I

MP3 Audio CD. Faust I is not rived into acts, but is arranged as a series of back grounds in various settings. After a celebratory verse and a prelude in the play, the real storyline starts with a prologue in Heaven, where God dares Mephistopheles, the Devil, that Mephistopheles cannot steer away God?s beloved determined sage, Dr. Faust. We later perceive Faust in his learning, who, perturbed of science with natural methods, efforts and misses to obtain facts of nature and the world by dreamlike ones. The crestfallen Faust thinks about taking his own life, yet is in a weak position by the songs of the commencement of Easter festivities. He bonds with his assistant Wagner for an Easter stroll in the rural area, one of the rejoicing persons, and is shadowed home by a small puppy. Earlier in the study, the small puppy transmutes itself into Mephistopheles, who proposes Faust a contract: he will do Faust's behest in the universe, and Faust will do the same for him in the underworld; only if Mephisto can fulfill his desire to be contented and to desire an everlasting time. Faust contracts in blood, and Mephisto first brings him to Auerbach's inn in Leipzig, where the demon performs wiles on several intoxicated merrymakers. Having afterwards been transmuted into a childlike man by a sorceress, Faust meets Margaret (Gretchen) and she arouses his yearnings. In a strategy implicating gems and Gretchen's neighbor Marthe, Mephisto causes Faust's and Gretchen's affair.
