The fi rst part of the meeting consisted of an interview between Francis Merson and Maestra Young (I refuse to call her “Maestro,” so henceforth she will be “Simone”). Francis is the editor of Limelight Magazine, and he asked a number of interesting questions about Simone’s background and her future plans. Simone, who was amazingly relaxed, given her other commitments, gave very full responses about her musical experiences, and spoke in an extremely frank and sometimes self-deprecating manner. We were treated to a number of anecdotes from her life, delivered with great humour. Some of them are described in detail later in this newsletter. As to her future plans, she is committed to remain in Hamburg until the end of the 2015 season, at which time she proposes to do freelance work. By then both her daughters will have fi nished school, so that her husband, Greg, will be free to travel with her.

He frequented concerts, however, taught himself the piano and composition , and read the plays of Shakespeare, Goethe, and Schiller. Wagner, attracted by the glamour of student life, enrolled at Leipzig University , but as an adjunct with inferior privileges, since he had not completed his preparatory schooling. Although he lived wildly, he applied himself earnestly to composition. Because of his impatience with all academic techniques, he spent a mere six months acquiring a groundwork with Theodor Weinlig, cantor of the Thomasschule; but his real schooling was a close personal study of the scores of the masters, notably the quartets and symphonies of Beethoven. He failed to get the opera produced at Leipzig and became conductor to a provincial theatrical troupe from Magdeburg , having fallen in love with one of the actresses of the troupe, Wilhelmine Minna Planer, whom he married in In , fleeing from his creditors, he decided to put into operation his long-cherished plan to win renown in Paris, but his three years in Paris were calamitous. Living with a colony of poor German artists, he staved off starvation by means of musical journalism and hackwork. In , aged 29, he gladly returned to Dresden, where Rienzi was triumphantly performed on October The next year The Flying Dutchman produced at Dresden, January 2, was less successful, since the audience expected a work in the French-Italian tradition similar to Rienzi and was puzzled by the innovative way the new opera integrated the music with the dramatic content.

  • Apocalypticism in Wagner's Ring by Woodrow Steinken BA, New York

I argue that Wagner’s cycle of four operas, Der Ring des Nibelungen (1876), presents colloquial conceptions of time, space, and nature via supernatural, divine characters who often frame the world in terms of non-rational metaphysics. Primary among these minor roles is Erda, the personification of the primordial earth. Erda’s character prophesies the end of the world in Das Rheingold, a prophecy undone later in Siegfried by Erda’s primary interlocutor and chief of the gods, Wotan. I argue that Erda’s role changes in various stage productions of the Ring, and these changes bespeak a shifting attachment between humanity, the earth, and its imagined apocalyptic demise.

  • The Fade Out: Metaphysics and Dialectics in Wagner
    1 ISSN 1751-8229 Volume Fifteen, Number One The Fade Out: Metaphysics and Dialectics in Wagner Eugene A Clayton Jr., Université de Picardie Jules Verne, Fr Abstract: This article is a critique of the failure of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen. It considers this as a metaphysical problem rather than an aesthetic or formal one. The article, considering Wagner’s inheritance from Haydn, claims him as the first composer of the culture industry. This will lead the author to conclusions regarding a gendered Das Unheimlich, the distinction between technology and technique, and the philosophy of aesthetics. Keywords: Wagner, Adorno, Zizek 1 2 The Fade Out: Metaphysics and Dialectics in Wagner ‘Meine feinste und tiefste Kunst möchte ich jetzt die Kunst des Überganges nennen…. Das ist denn nun auch das Geheimnis meiner musikalischen Form…’ -Richard Wagner, Letter to Mathilde Wesendonk of 29 October 18591 ‘But here, too, it would be better to begin at the extreme, with the noise itself, to emphasize the creative brilliance of Wagner's sound in those instances where it stands in opposition to the mean of moderate enjoyment, and simply cannot be listened to with delectation.’ –T. W. Adorno, ‘Wagner’s Relevance for Today’ The Fade Out: Technique and Technology Significantly the earliest composed example of the fade-out is rather than merely technically determined too technologically determined. It is only because such a strategy of supplementation is presumed to be necessary that the fade-out is revealed as pseudo-technical rather than truly technical: the pseudo-technical is ontologically insufficient and so must be supplemented by the technological.

  • 'Alles, Was Ist, Endet:' on Dramatic Text, Absolute Music, Adorno, and Wagner's Ring
    SHERRY D. LEE ‘Alles, was ist, endet:’ On Dramatic Text, Absolute Music, Adorno, and Wagner’s Ring ABSTRACT The crux of the operatic genre has always been the perennially problematic relationship between text and music. Richard Wagner attempted to solve this con- undrum in his new art form of music drama – first embodied in his monumental Ring cycle – which he theorized in gendered terms as a union of poetry (male) and music (female), an imagined marriage between the qualities of Shakespearean drama and Beethovenian symphony. But according to Theodor Adorno, the very notion of symphonic music, which follows its own musical logic, is antitheti- cal to the genre of opera, which demands that music construct itself according to its relationship to language. From the impasse between the demands of the opera- tic art form and the increasingly autonomous music of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, he theorized the end of opera itself in the age of mod- ernism. This article entwines Wagner’s concept of music drama, the musico- dramatic character of Erda who prophesies the end of the world in the Ring, and Adorno’s diagnosis of opera’s fatal condition in the decades following Wagner, to examine the principle of ending in opera, and of opera, and how the former can be read as a prefiguration of the latter. ‘All that is, ends.’ This terse announcement is made by the goddess Erda in act 4 of Das Rheingold, the opening opera in Richard Wagner’s monumental Ring cycle. The prophecy of an inevitable end, which hangs over the entire remainder of this fifteen-plus-hour opus, arrives near the end of the begin- ning of the Ring and dramatically signals the beginning of the end.

  • Newsletter June 2012 (PDF)
    Newsletter June 2012 CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION Dear Member, I am sorry it has taken some time to get the newsletter to you but every time we are ready to send it more information comes in and we have more to add. I trust you will find this newsletter particularly interesting. One of the key items of news in this newsletter is the plans for next year, and what an interesting year it promises to be. Following representation from members, we have decided to have a dinner to celebrate the 10 anniversary of the founding of the Society. This will take place on the 20th September at Donnybrook Fair. The room can only accommodate 55 so we would appreciate it if members could inform us if they are going to attend. The cost will be €30 per head excluding wine. It is great to think that in the year of our anniversary there will also be a performance of Tristan und Isolde in Dublin. We, as you read below, have tickets reserved for the first performance. I am also delighted that the Finnish Wagner Society will be organising a trip to attend and we will be using the opportunity to meet them and make them welcome. Our schedule of events this year starts in October with a lecture marking the foundation of the Society by Chris McQuaid, the title being "Wagner Chöre und Umlaute". I trust the range of lectures will provide interesting variety. Next year also sees the production of The Flying Dutchman in Belfast and we will organise a trip to see the performance.
