A. ELLIS PUBLISHED BY C. A. ELLIS, MANAGER l Overture to the Opera "Rienzi, the Last of the Tribunes." Richard Wagner (Born at Leipsic, May 22, 1813; died at Venice, February 13, 1883.) Wagner left Konigsberg in the early summer of 1837 to visit Dresden, and there he read Barmann's translation into German of Bulwer's "Rienzi."* And thus was revived his long-cherished idea of making the last of the Tribunes the hero of a grand opera. "My impatience of a degrading plight now mounted to a passionate craving to begin something grand and elevating, no matter if it involved the temporary abandonment of any practical goal. This mood was fed and strength- ened by a reading of Bulwer's 'Rienzi.' From the misery of modern private life, whence I could nohow glean the scantiest material for artistic treatment, I was wafted by the image of a great historico- political event, in the enjoyment whereof I needs must find a distrac- tion lifting me above cares and conditions that to me appeared noth- ing less then absolutely fatal to art." During this visit he was much impressed by a performance of Halevy's "Jewess" at the Court The- atre, and a warrior's dance in Spohr's "Jessonda" was cited by him afterward as a model for the military dances in "Rienzi." Wagner wrote the text of "Rienzi" at Riga in July, 1838. He began to compose the music late in July of the same year. He looked toward Paris as the city for the production. "Perhaps it may please Scribe," he wrote to Lewald, "and Rienzi could sing French in a jiffy; or it might be a means of prodding up the Berliners, if one told them that the Paris stage was ready to accept it, but they were welcome to pre- cedence." He himself worked on a translation into French. In May, 1839, he completed the music of the second act, but the rest of the music was written in Paris. The third act was completed August 11, 1840; the orchestration of the fourth was begun August 14, 1840; the score of the opera was completed November 19, 1840. The overture to "Rienzi" was completed October 23, 1840. The opera was produced at the Royal Saxon Court Theatre, Dresden, October 20, 1842. * The first performance of the opera in America was at the Academy of Music, New York, March 4, 1878. The overture is scored for one piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, two valve horns, two plain horns, one serpent, two valve trumpets, two plain trumpets, three trombones, one ophi- cleide, kettledrums, two snare-drums, bass drum, triangle, cymbals, and strings. The serpent mentioned in the score is replaced by the double-bassoon, and the ophicleide by the bass tuba. All the themes of the overture are taken from the opera itself. The overture begins with a slow introduction, molto sostenuto e maestoso, * Bulwer's novel[was published at Londonlin threc^volumes in 1835. D major, 4-4. It opens with "a long-sustained, swelled and dimin- ished A on the trumpet," in the opera, the agreed signal for the up- rising of the people to throw off the tyrannical yoke of the nobles. The majestic cantilena of the violins and the 'cellos is the theme of Rienzi's prayer in the fifth act. The development of this theme is abruptly cut off by passage-work, which leads in crescendo to a for- tissimo return of the theme in the brass against ascending series of turns in the first violins. The development of the theme is again interrupted, and recitative-like phrases lead to a return of the trumpet call, interspersed with tremolos in the strings. The last prolonged A leads to the main body of the overture. This begins Allegro energico, D major, 2-2, in the full orchestra on the first theme, that of the chorus, "Gegriisst sei hoher Tag!" at the beginning of the first finale of the opera. The first subsidiary theme enters in the brass, and it is the theme of the battle hymn ("Santo spirito cavaliere") of the revolutionary faction in the third act. A transitional passage in the 'cellos leads to the entrance of the second theme,—Rienzi's prayer, already heaid in the introduction of the overture,—which is now given, allegro, in A major, to the vio- lins. The "Santo spirito cavaliere" theme returns in the brass, and leads to another and joyful theme, that of the stretto of the second finale, "Rienzi, dir sei Preis," which is developed with increasing force. The free fantasia is short, and is devoted almost wholly to a stormy working-out of the "Santo spirito cavaliere" theme. The third part of the movement is a shortened repetition of the first; the battle hymn and the second theme are omitted, and the first theme is followed immediately by the motive, "Rienzi, dir sei Preis," against which trumpets and trombones play a sonorous counter-theme, which is very like the phrase of the nobles, "Ha, dieser Gnade Schmach er- druckt das stolze Herz!" in the second finale. In the coda, molto piu stretto, the "Santo spirito cavaliere" is developed in a most ro- bust manner. Overture; to "The; Flying Dutchman" . Richard Wagne;r (Born at Leipsic, May 22, 1813; died at Venice, February 13, 1883.) The overture is scored for one piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, one English horn, two clarinets, four horns, two bassoons, two trumpets, three trombones, one bass tuba, kettledrums, harp, strings. It was sketched at Meudon near Paris in September, 1841, and com- pleted and scored at Paris in November of that year. In 1852 Wagner changed the ending. In i860 he wrote another ending for the Paris concerts. It opens Allegro con brio in D minor, 6-4, with an empty fifth, against which horns and bassoons give out the Flying Dutchman motive. There is a stormy development, through which this motive is kept sounding in the brass. There is a hint at the first theme of the main body of the overture, an arpeggio figure in the strings, taken from the accompaniment of one of the movements in the Dutchman's first air in act i. This storm section over, there is an episodic Andante in F major in which wind instruments give out phrases from Senta's ballad of the Flying Dutchman (act ii.). The episode leads directly to the main body of the overture, Allegro con brio in D minor, 6-4, which begins with the first theme. This theme is developed at great length with chromatic passages taken from Senta's ballad. The Flying Dutch- man theme comes. in episodically in the brass from time to time. The subsidiary theme in F major is taken from the sailors' chorus, "Steuer- mann, lass' die Wacht!" (act iii.). The second theme, the phrase from Senta's ballad already heard in the Andante episode, enters f in the full orchestra, F major, and is worked up brilliantly with fragments of the first theme. The Flying Dutchman motive reappears jj in the trombones. The coda begins in D major, 2-2. A few rising arpeggio measures in the violins lead to the second theme proclaimed with the full force of the orchestra.

  • Parsifal and Canada: a Documentary Study
    Parsifal and Canada: A Documentary Study The Canadian Opera Company is preparing to stage Parsifal in Toronto for the first time in 115 years; seven performances are planned for the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts from September 25 to October 18, 2020. Restrictions on public gatherings imposed as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic have placed the production in jeopardy. Wagnerians have so far suffered the cancellation of the COC’s Flying Dutchman, Chicago Lyric Opera’s Ring cycle and the entire Bayreuth Festival for 2020. It will be a hard blow if the COC Parsifal follows in the footsteps of a projected performance of Parsifal in Montreal over 100 years ago. Quinlan Opera Company from England, which mounted a series of 20 operas in Montreal in the spring of 1914 (including a complete Ring cycle), announced plans to return in the fall of 1914 for another feast of opera, including Parsifal. But World War One intervened, the Parsifal production was cancelled, and the Quinlan company went out of business. Let us hope that history does not repeat itself.1 While we await news of whether the COC production will be mounted, it is an opportune time to reflect on Parsifal and its various resonances in Canadian music history. This article will consider three aspects of Parsifal and Canada: 1) a performance history, including both excerpts and complete presentations; 2) remarks on some Canadian singers who have sung Parsifal roles; and 3) Canadian scholarship on Parsifal.

  • Wagner in Comix and 'Toons
    - The original artwork [pictured in black and white Who Knew? at bottom] used to produce the 1975 Marvel cover [pictured in color below] is, like a number Remember when parents struck like Darth Vader at of other original illustrations for comic books, their kids’ comic book collections? “Trash” is the fetching large sums from collectors. word they used, and out the comics went. Little did The New York Times, Sunday, June 30, 2008 anyone realize that he might be throwing out a valuable collectors piece. More to the point, as Mr. F. Peter Phillips shows in the following illustrated essay on Richard Wagner is how the “comix” have been used to graphically portray his epic “Rng Cycle.” Phillips shows how popular culture and its forms (comic books and car- toons) have been incorporated in the Gesamtkust- werk concept and have added still another dimension to the legacy of Wagner’s operas. It wouldn’t have surprised Wagner who said after the first production of the Ring in 1876, “Next time, children, everything different.” An open mind and a willing heart have always been prerequisites for en- joying any of the fine arts. Mr. Phllips is an attorney specializing in Alternative Dispute Resolution and serves as Secretary of the Wagner Society of New York. Harry L. Wagner, Publisher Wagner Society of New York Wagner in Comix and ‘Toons By F.

The Ring has been ren- dered into comics of substantial integrity at least three times in the past two decades, and a recent scholarly study of music used in animated cartoons has noted uses of Wagner’s music that suggest that Wagner’s influence may even more profoundly im- bued in our culture than we might have thought.

  • From Page to Stage: Wagner As Regisseur
    Wagner Ia 5/27/09 3:55 PM Page 3 Copyrighted Material From Page to Stage: Wagner as Regisseur KATHERINE SYER Nowadays we tend to think of Richard Wagner as an opera composer whose ambitions and versatility extended beyond those of most musicians. From the beginning of his career he assumed the role of his own librettist, and he gradually expanded his sphere of involvement to include virtually all aspects of bringing an opera to the stage. If we focus our attention on the detailed dramatic scenarios he created as the bases for his stage works, we might well consider Wagner as a librettist whose ambitions extended rather unusually to the area of composition. In this light, Wagner could be considered alongside other theater poets who paid close attention to pro- duction matters, and often musical issues as well.1 The work of one such figure, Eugène Scribe, formed the foundation of grand opera as it flour- ished in Paris in the second quarter of the nineteenth century. Wagner arrived in this operatic epicenter in the fall of 1839 with work on his grand opera Rienzi already under way, but his prospects at the Opéra soon waned. The following spring, Wagner sent Scribe a dramatic scenario for a shorter work hoping that the efforts of this famous librettist would help pave his way to success. Scribe did not oblige. Wagner eventually sold the scenario to the Opéra, but not before transforming it into a markedly imaginative libretto for his own use.2 Wagner’s experience of operatic stage produc- tion in Paris is reflected in many aspects of the libretto of Der fliegende Holländer, the beginning of an artistic vision that would draw him increas- ingly deeper into the world of stage direction and production.

  • 4. Wagner Prelude to Tristan Und Isolde (For Unit 6: Developing Musical Understanding)
    4. Wagner Prelude to Tristan und Isolde (For Unit 6: Developing Musical Understanding) Background information and performance circumstances Richard Wagner (1813-1883) was the greatest exponent of mid-nineteenth-century German romanticism. Like some other leading nineteenth-century musicians, but unlike those from previous eras, he was never a professional instrumentalist or singer, but worked as a freelance composer and conductor. A genius of over-riding force and ambition, he created a new genre of ‘music drama’ and greatly expanded the expressive possibilities of tonal composition. His works divided musical opinion, and strongly influenced several generations of composers across Europe. Career Brought up in a family with wide and somewhat Bohemian artistic connections, Wagner was discouraged by his mother from studying music, and at first was drawn more to literature – a source of inspiration he shared with many other romantic composers. It was only at the age of 15 that he began a secret study of harmony, working from a German translation of Logier’s School of Thoroughbass. [A reprint of this book is available on the Internet - http://archive.org/details/logierscomprehen00logi. The approach to basic harmony, remarkably, is very much the same as we use today.] Eventually he took private composition lessons, completing four years of study in 1832. Meanwhile his impatience with formal training and his obsessive attention to what interested him led to a succession of disasters over his education in Leipzig, successively at St Nicholas’ School, St Thomas’ School (where Bach had been cantor), and the university. At the age of 15, Wagner had written a full-length tragedy, and in 1832 he wrote the libretto to his first opera.

ELLIS PUBLISHED BY C. A. ELLIS, MANAGER : : Vladimir De Pachmann The Greatest Pianist Of the 20th Century ON TOUR IN THE UNITED STATES SEASON: 1911-1912 For generations the appearance of new stars on the musical firmament has been announced — then they came with a temporary glitter — soon to fade and to be forgotten. De Pachmann has outlived them all. With each return he won additional resplendence and to-day he is acknowl- edged by the truly artistic public to be the greatest exponent of the piano of the twentieth century. As Arthur Symons, the eminent British critic, says "Pachmann is the Verlaine or Whistler of the Pianoforte the greatest player of the piano now living." Pachmann, as before, uses the BALDWIN PIANO for the expression of his magic art, the instrument of which he himself says " .... It cries when I feel like crying, it sings joyfully when I feel like singing. It responds — like a human being — to every mood. I love the Baldwin Piano." Every lover of the highest type of piano music will, of course, go to hear Pachmann — to revel in the beauty of his music and to marvel at it. It is the beautiful tone quality, the voice which is music itself, and the wonderfully responsive action of the Baldwin Piano, by which Pachmann's miraculous hands reveal to you the thrill, the terror and the ecstasy of a beauty which you had never dreamed was hidden in sounds.

  • Albert Pinkham Ryder 1 S Two Wagnerian Paintings: the Flying Dutchman and Siegfried and the Rhine Maidens
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: Albert Pinkham Ryder 1 s Two Wagnerian Paintings: The Flying Dutchman and Siegfried and the Rhine Maidens Sharon Dale Carman, Master of Arts, 1988 Thesis directed by: John Peters-Campbell, Assistant Professor, Art History Albert Pinkham Ryder (1847-1917) has traditionally been regarded as an anomalous figure in the history of art. A small, but growing, body of scholarship has recently been devoted to correcting this view of the artist and to establishing his relationship to the aes- thetic currents of his time. This study explores the influence on his art of Ryder's environment, late nineteenth-century New York. Two of Ryder's paintings, each based on an incident in an opera by Richard Wagner, are examined: Siegfried and the Rhine Maidens, drawn from Gotterdammerung; and The Flying Dutchman, inspired by Der fliegende Hollander. The history of opera in nineteenth- century New York helps to explain how an American painter came to be influenced by such distinctly German operatic themes. German immigration patterns are linked with changes in operatic taste, and the interest of native intellectuals in Wagner's music and ideas is discussed. Wagnerian staging tradition is posited as a source for the compositions of both Siegfried and the Rhine Maidens and The Flying Dutchman. It is demonstrated that the set designed by Josef Hoffmann for the original Bayreuth pro­ duction of Gotterdammerung, Act III, Scene I, served as the specific compositional basis for Ryder's Siegfried and the Rhine Maidens.
