  • 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. NB: The indication [DS] refers the reader to sources that are reproduced in the documentation portfolio that accompanies this article.

In the words of Jeanette Miller and Richard Green: “More’s the pity if it were to prove a once-in-a-lifetime concert experience—the massed standing ovation that greeted the final chord of the Auckland Philharmonia’s Tristan und Isolde was surely testament enough that New Zealand audiences have a hunger for more of the same. 12,000 miles away (give or take a few) the audience in Bayreuth was Eckehard Stier conducts while Daveda Karanas (Brangäne) keeps watch.

  • Newsletter September 2011 (PDF)
    Newsletter September 2011 CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION Dear Member, The Committee hopes you had an enjoyable summer. Some Members were in Bayreuth and Bruce Arnold, who was previously there in 1959, has kindly offered to give us the first talk after summer, comparing and contrasting his two visits. We have largely finalised our schedule of talks until next summer and hope you will find that at least some of them are of interest to you. Dates to the end of 2011 are now fixed, but further details are needed, and some possible changes may occur, for 2012. We will update the website as information becomes available and the next Newsletter will also provide more details. A key part of the year will be our continuing Study Days on Wagner’s Operas with Derek Watson. We continue with Lohengrin in October and hope in spring to follow with Tristan. That we are having talks twice this year is following representations from Members. This newsletter also contains a review of the trip to Karlsruhe by Mary Spollen and I contribute a short note on the Congress in Wrocław this year. Ian Fox kindly supplied a bibliography for those interested in following up some of the things discussed in his lecture last November, while Michael Marr reminds us of the website. Lastly, Chris McQuaid has offered some thoughts on the new production of Tannhäuser in Bayreuth this year. We look forward to seeing you at meetings Kind regards, Anthony Linehan, Chairman 2 SOCIETY PROGRAMME OF EVENTS 2011/ 2012 Our wide-ranging programme of lectures was very well attended over the past months and plans for the forthcoming season are well advanced.

  • Summer 2010 Den Reif Geb’ Ich Nicht! Volume 7, Number 3 –Das Rheingold
    Wagneriana Lasst mich in Ruh’! Summer 2010 Den Reif geb’ ich nicht! Volume 7, Number 3 –Das Rheingold From the Editor e are busy planning the upcoming season and have a number of interesting events in the works. The first is a talk and book signing by Professor Nicholas Vazsonyi, author of Richard Wagner: Self-Promotion and W the Making of a Brand, published by Cambridge University Press. The book was very well received when it was released last March. A reviewer from the Wall Street Journal wrote: “Written with panache and élan, conveying with refreshing brevity a palpable sense of Wagner's indefatigable industry . the first scholarly text to take seri- ously Wagner’s incessant self-promotional activity, Mr Vazsonyi’s book assumes considerable importance not only in musicology but also in the history of marketing.” According to Opera magazine, “It is . a cracking good read as we learn about Wagner’s abilities to turn himself into a ‘brand’ or to act as his own ‘PR agent.’ An important book, too, as Vazsonyi foregrounds an aspect of Wagner we hear too little about, re-aligning a great 19th-century figure through the filter of an avowedly 21st-century sensibility.” This book was also reviewed by Professor Hans Rudolf Vaget in the spring issue of Wagneriana. For details on the October 16 talk and book signing, see the back page. Our second event is a talk and audiovisual presentation by Hilan Warshaw, a talented young filmmaker and musician. This event was originally planned for September, but the date has now been changed to November 13.
