Translation Disclaimer
I do not intend to infringe on any copyrights on my website. I've
posted the translations for the interest of people who've seen Tanz der
Vampire but aren't fluent in German, and for people who aren't likely to
get to see the show. Reading transcripts is, of course, no substitute for
seeing the show live, and I'd recommend seeing TdV to anyone with a remote
interest in musicals, and certainly to any Jim Steinman fans. In doing the
translations, I often found it difficult to strike the right balance between a literal
translation and a translation which would really communicate the ideas of the
original. The result is that some parts of the translations are very accurate,
others convey the general meaning. I did the translations myself (unless
otherwise stated) with the help of a very big dictionary; the original German
pieces were obviously not my work and I've tried to credit the authors wherever
possible. Please bear in mind when reading the translations that they may
contain mistakes! And finally, if you spot any mistakes, please let me know -
you'll be fully credited.
