Not all its cracked up to be

Paid for it but can only access half of each libretto. Made contact with the developer but no response so far.

Invaluable resource

Not always perfect, nor always literal, but certainly better - that is, more literal - than most vocal score translations.

Not designed for iPhone 5.
