G. Wolfgang, and later Wolfgang Amade ; in the family he was always Wolfgang) was born in Salzburg on Jan. 27, 1756, and died there on Dec. 5, 1791. He was one of the most astonishing instances of musical precocity on record, his unusually thorough musical education, which he owed almost wholly to his father, beginning with lessons on the pianoforte at the age of three. Soon after this he began to compose and take lessons on the violin. From 1762 to 1769 he and his sister Marianne led the life of child-prodigies, Wolfgang being known as a composer al- most from the beginning.

In December, 1769, Wolfgang set out with his father on his triumphal progress through Italy, doing some work in counterpoint with Giambattista Sammartini in Milan, and some in fugue with Padre Martini in Bologna; the order of the Golden Spur was con- ferred upon him by the Pope in Rome; he wrote successful operas for many of the cities he visited, his " Ascanio in Alba " completely eclipsing Johann Adolph Hasse's ''Ruggiero" in Bologna (Mozart was then fifteen, and Hasse seventy-two); he was made ^^ compositore^* to the Accademia Filarmonica, and afterwards (honorary ?) maestro di cappella in Bologna. Up to 1775 he continued making trips to bring out operas in various musical capitals. About this time he gave up the violin, much to his father's disap- pointment, and stuck to the pianoforte ; but to his dying day he was fond of playing the viola in quartets in private. During 1775-77 he remained in Salzburg, composing ; but in September of the latter year he and his mother went through Munich and Augsburg to Mannheim, and thence to Paris, ar- riving there on March 23, 1778. At this time all musical circles in the French capital were so immersed in the Gluck-Piccinni controversy that they had little attention left to bestow upon Mozart : he succeeded in bringing out only a few works. His mother died on July 3, and he returned home the following September. He abominated Salzburg, his duties as Conzert- meister and organist at court and the cathedral (he had succeeded Adlgas- ser at a salary of about $200) were not to his taste, and his position in the service of Archbishop Hieronymus, Count of Colloredo, was hardly bearable^ On Jan. 29, 1781, " Idomeneo, Re di Greta," his first great opera, and the one which consolidated his reputation, was given during the Carni- val in Munich. On March 16 he joined the archbishop in Vienna: his relations with this worthy ended at last in a kicking downstairs and a shower of bad language. In Vienna he lived at the house of Fridolin Weber, with whose daughter Aloysia he had fallen in love at Mannheim in 1777, but who had jilted him in Munich in 1779. She was now married to Joseph Laufe, a court actor. But Mozart soon got over his disappoint- New Englaim Conservatory of music (Founded by Dr. Eben Tourjee.) RICHARD H. DANA, President.

He was very poor, could get no appointment at court, the Italian Opera was monopo- lized by Giuseppe Sarti and Giovanni Paisiello, and he had to support him- self by composition and concert-giving, of both of which he did a good deal. In July, 1783, he returned to Salzburg, to conduct a mass of his and to present his wife to his family ; but neither his father (who had been strongly opposed to the match) nor his sister could get on with her, and he soon went back to Vienna.

Mai 1928 fuhr der Rheingold erstmals von Hoek van Holland Aund Amsterdam nach Basel. Namensgebend war der sagenumwo- bene Nibelungenschatz. Die Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft und die MITROPA machten mit dem violett-cremefarbenen Pullmanzug zunächst ein gutes Geschäft. Insbesondere erwies er sich auch als Trumpf ge- genüber dem von der Internationalen Schlafwagengesellschaft angebotenen Konkurrenzzug Edelweiss Amsterdam – Basel via Brüssel, Luxemburg und Straßburg. Für die meisten Reisenden bedeutete eine Fahrt im Rheingold mehr als nur hochkomfortabel ans Ziel zu gelangen. Wohlig in weiche Sessel zurück- gelehnt, ließen sie an den breiten Fenstern die Rheinlandschaft vorüberzie- hen, genossen deren sich im Streckenabschnitt Koblenz – Mainz entfaltende Pracht mit Burgen und Schlössern, malerischen Städten und Dörfern, reben- bewachsenen Hängen und dem weltberühmten Loreleyfelsen. Nicht zuletzt trug der enorme Werbeaufwand mit künstlerisch gestalteten Plakaten und Prospekten zum Erfolg des deutschen Pullmanzuges bei, Wa- gendurchläufe bis Luzern und Zürich erhöhten seine Attraktivität. Doch die 1930 voll einsetzende Wirtschaftskrise traf ihn gleichsam wie der auf dem Goldschatz im Rhein lastende Fluch des Nibelungenkönigs Alberich. Ab 1933 mieden ausländische Reisende die Route durch das von den National- sozialisten beherrschte Deutsche Reich, zudem gingen die Fahrgastzahlen aufgrund verschärfter Devisenkontrollen zurück. Erst die 1936 gesenkten Fahrpreiszuschläge und die 1938 deutlich angehobene Reisegeschwindig- keit bescherten dem Rheingold wieder mehr Zuspruch.

  • Reflections on the Stuttgart Ring
    Performance The Stuttgart Ring on DVD: A Review Portfolio Everyday Totalitarianism: Reflections on the Stuttgart Ring Downloaded from By the standards of contemporary German opera, the recent Stuttgart production of Richard Wagner’s Ring des Nibelungen has generated a great deal of hype. Critics hail it as an epochal “milestone in the history of Wagner production, akin to the Patrice Che´reau Bayreuth centenary Ring of 1976,” and praise it for single- handedly disproving “widespread claims that opera is dead.”1 The most com- http://oq.oxfordjournals.org monly cited virtue of the production is its use of a different director for each opera. Klaus Zehelein, Intendant of the Stuttgart Staatsoper from 1991 to 2006, a dramaturge by profession and the man who organized this Ring, offers unabashed self-praise: “Only because we arranged for a different team to direct each piece of the Ring will its moments of exposition finally realize those sublime theatrical forms that Wagner offers us.”2 The result is now available on DVD. at Princeton University on June 17, 2010 *** Why four directors and not one? Zehelein’s most straightforward justification, the one that dominates press releases from Stuttgart and reviews in the German press, is that stage directors must be liberated. Any effort to impose a unified concept or meaning on the Ring cycle (Totalita¨tsanspruch), Zehelein argues, restricts the director’s creative freedom and is thus “totalitarian.”3 Holistic con- cepts encumber directors by constraining them to adopt interpretations of the Ring consistent with the overarching ideas, symbols, and musical leitmotifs in Wagner’s text and music.4 By treating the Ring instead as a series of disconnected episodes, directors are free to respond to each dramatic moment without “prior assumptions” or “obligations.”5 A modern audience should similarly perceive the Ring as a series of disconnected theatrical moments or “theatrical piecework.”6 Having no big message to transmit and no one in charge enhances artistic freedom and releases creative energy.
