    THE STORY
    It is spring in the Black Forest. Roberto and Anna are celebrating their engagement with family and friends (No. 2: Introductory Chorus). Everyone is cheerful, except Anna. Roberto must go to Mainz before the ceremony but Anna has a dream that she will die waiting for his return. Roberto tells Anna that she should not worry and that she may doubt anything but not his love for her (No. 3: Duet). Before leaving, Roberto asks Anna’s father Guglielmo for his blessing (No. 4: The Prayer).
    In Mainz, Roberto is seduced by a courtesan and forgets about Anna, who dies of a broken heart, turning into a Willi. According to the legend, the Willis will force the heartbreaker to dance until death (Nos. 5a & 5b: Orchestral interlude).
    It is winter now, and Guglielmo, still mourning his daughter, asks the Willi to avenge Anna (No. 6: Prelude and Guglielmo’s scene). When Roberto returns to the forest, Anna’s spirit appears and speaks of the sorrows she has experienced. Roberto asks for forgiveness, but Anna compels Roberto to dance until he dies (No. 7: Final Scene).
