  • What Price Love.Pdf
    Ring 2018 articles V2.qxp_RING 2018 5/19/18 4:20 PM Page 1 B Y P E T E R B A S S E T T WHAT ichard Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen is rarely described as an extended love story, but that is what it is. The changing relationships throughout the four oRperas tend to obscure this central idea but, when you think about PRICE it, love is the thread that binds the whole story together—not love confined to a single pair of individuals but love as the alternative to hatred and revenge, power and property, greed and envy. The story begins with love’s renunciation and ends with its triumph as LOVE? the one irreplaceable, transforming ingredient in a new world order. That surely is the significance of the soaring orchestral melody that concludes Götterdämmerung. It is difficult to separate the allegory of the Ring from events in A century before post-Napoleonic europe when rival forces were attempting, on the one hand, to restore reactionary systems of government (think George Orwell’s 1984, of them as the gods) and, on the other hand, to establish new sys- tems of capital ushered in by the Industrial Revolution (think of alberich and his ilk). The result was a chain of political uprisings the Ring warned of throughout europe in the 1830s and ’40s—and incredible intellec- tual and creative ferment. Goethe and Beethoven were alive when the rise of totalitarianism Wagner was a teenager, Charles Darwin was four years his senior, and Karl Marx was five years his junior.

  • Wagmer Neypmd Good and Evil
    36167_u01.qxd 1/7/08 4:06 PM Page 3 1. Wagner Lives Issues in Autobiography Wagner’s biography has been researched to within an inch of its life. It has been dissected, drenched with no end of detail, eroticized, vilified, heroi- cized, and several times filmed.1 Its foundations are the collected writings, which in the first instance Wagner edited himself in the spirit of an autobi- ographical enterprise;2 a separate and lengthy autobiography, Mein Leben (My life), dictated to his mistress and later second wife, Cosima, daughter of Franz Liszt;3 notebooks and diaries;4 photographs and portraits;5 an un- usually large number of letters;6 mounds of anecdotal gossip; and no end of documentation on the way he lived and how his contemporaries saw him.7 In this sense, he is almost the exact antithesis of Shakespeare, whose life, or at least what is safely known about it in terms of verifiable “facts,” can be told in a relatively short space. I have summarized the history of Wagner biography elsewhere.8 Here I want to look at Wagner’s own portrayals of his life, some issues they raise, the philosophical spirit in which I believe they were attempted, and their effect on the generation that came immediately after him. Biographers of Shakespeare have had to resort to imaginative recon- structions and not infrequently to knowingly forged documents that have accorded their subject more lives than a cat.9 In stark contrast, there appears to be only one life for Wagner, which he did his best to determine in large part himself.

The question, however, remains as to what extent this report- ed scepticism truly reflects people’s opinions and feelings about Europe. We all consider it normal to cross borders within Europe, often while using the same money, as well as to take part in exchange programmes, invest in enterprises across Europe and appeal to European institutions if national regulations, for example, do not meet our expectations.

  • Richard Wagner on the Practice and Teaching of Singing
    Richard Wagner on the Practice and Teaching of Singing By Peter Bassett [A paper presented to the 8th International Congress of Voice Teachers on 13 July 2013.] Weber and Beethoven were still alive when Wagner was a teenager, and their long shadows, together with those of Mozart and Marschner fell on all his early projects. His first completed opera Die Feen, composed in 1833 when he was just twenty years old, was never performed in his lifetime but, even if it had been, it wouldn’t have sounded as good as it does in the best recorded versions we know today. The type of singing familiar to Wagner was far from ideal, and many German singers of his era were poorly trained and had unsophisticated techniques. His sternest critic, Eduard Hanslick had something to say on the difference between German and Italian singers at that time: ‘With the Italians’ he said, ‘great certainty and evenness throughout the role; with the Germans an unequal alternation of brilliant and mediocre moments, which seems partly accidental.’ Wagner had to entrust his major roles to inadequately trained singers in many cases, which must have been challenging to say the least. He worked hard to improve matters, pouring much time and energy into the preparation of performances. ‘I do not care in the slightest’ he once said, ‘whether my works are performed. What I do care about is that they are performed as I intended them to be. Anyone who cannot, or will not, do so, had better leave them alone.’ David Breckbill has written that ‘The differences between the singing which Wagner knew and that which we hear today are considerable.

  • Degenerate Religion and Masculinity in Parsifal Reception
    Degenerate Religion and Masculinity in Parsifal Reception James Kennaway Our future historians will cull from still unpublished letters and memoirs ... the idea that the performances at Bayreuth had really much the status of religious rites and that their effects were not unlike what is technically called a revival. -Vernon Lee (1911: 875) The idea that there is something religious about Bayreuth is not new, and goes well beyond cliches about opera houses as the "cathedrals of the bourgeoisie:' The words used to describe the festival by Wagnerians and anti -Wagnerians alike have often been consciously religious. One makes a pilgrimage to the holy site, there are acolytes who serve the holy work and the orthodoxy, her­ etics are excommunicated-the comparisons are all too obvious. Friedrich Nietzsche referred to this phenomenon in a letter to his friend Malwida von Meysenburg when he suggested that "all this Wagnerizing" was "an unconscious emulation of Rome" (Fischer-Dieskau 1974:202). Even in more recent times, after the moral, ideological, and organizational disasters that the festival was caught up in during the twentieth century, the skies above the Festspielhaus were scoured for signs of the white smoke announcing which member of the dysfunctional clan was to succeed the composer's grandson Wolfgang Wagner. If this musical Vatican has a central rite, it is surely Parsifal. Not an opera or a music drama but a "Biihnenweihfestspiel" (a "stage-festival­ consecration-play"), Wagner's last work leaves the cheerful paganism of the Ring far behind.l The composer had toyed with aspects of Christianity as far back as Tannhiiuser, but in Parsifal he went much further, almost to the point, many believed, of creating opera as sacrament.

  • Eva Rieger. 2011. Richard Wagner's Women. Translated By
    Eva Rieger. 2011. Richard Wagner’s Women. Translated by Chris Walton. Woodbridge, UK: Boydell Press. Laurence Dreyfus. 2010. Wagner and the Erotic Impulse. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press. Reviewed by Jeremy Coleman The anniversary commemoration of great artistic figures would be incomplete without a survey of the scholarly landscape. So in the year of Richard Wagner’s bicentenary, the publication of new books shows no sign of abating, and nor should it, when there is still so much to be said about this most controversial of composers. But many of the literary products that pass for Wagner scholarship are still beset by popular assumption, blind deference, and trite dismissal, imposing a dead weight that threatens to smother the critical spark that alone can do Wagner justice and demonstrate his startling relevance. It is in this spirit that the present article will individually review two recent publications on gender and sexuality in Wagner, and finally compare them and reflect on wider scholarly trends and possibilities. In Richard Wagner’s Women, an English translation by Chris Walton of “Leuchtende Liebe, lachender Tod”: Richard Wagners Bild der Frau im Spiegel seiner Musik (2009), Eva Rieger offers one of the first “feminist” studies of Wagner’s life and work. Specifically, Rieger assesses the dramatic function and characterization of both women and, to a lesser extent, “feminized” men in Wagner’s operas, from Das Liebesverbot to Parsifal. The original German–language publication was warmly praised in a review, “Role Play,” by Walton (2010), who evidently valued the study highly enough to bring it to a wider readership.

Often depicted in history books as the age of the Lied, the early nineteenth century was also the age of the Chorgesang, creating a demand for music for social gatherings. Amateur choruses and partsinging reached their peak of popularity in nineteenth-century Germany.
