''Oedipus Tyrannus of Sophocles: Composed for Male Chorus and Orchestra'' is a book written by John Knowles Paine in 1895. The book is a musical composition that is based on the ancient Greek tragedy ''Oedipus Rex'' by Sophocles. The composition is written for a male chorus and orchestra and is divided into several sections, each corresponding to a different scene in the play. The music is characterized by its grandeur and dramatic intensity, reflecting the tragic nature of the story. The book also includes a preface by Paine, in which he discusses his approach to the composition and his admiration for the original play. Overall, ''Oedipus Tyrannus of Sophocles'' is a powerful musical interpretation of one of the greatest tragedies in Western literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
