    Synopsis Prologue Mythical times. At night in the mountains, the three Norns, daughters of Erda, weave the rope of destiny. They tell how Wotan ordered the World Ash Tree, from which his spear was once cut, to be felled and its wood piled around Valhalla. The burning of the pyre will mark the end of the old order. Suddenly, the rope breaks. Their wisdom ended, the Norns descend into the earth. Dawn breaks on the Valkyries’ rock, and Siegfried and Brünnhilde emerge. Having cast protective spells on Siegfried, Brünnhilde sends him into the world to do heroic deeds. As a pledge of his love, Siegfried gives her the ring that he took from the dragon Fafner, and she offers her horse, Grane, in return. Siegfried sets off on his travels. Act I In the hall of the Gibichungs on the banks of the Rhine, Hagen advises his half- siblings, Gunther and Gutrune, to strengthen their rule through marriage. He suggests Brünnhilde as Gunther’s bride and Siegfried as Gutrune’s husband. Since only the strongest hero can pass through the fire on Brünnhilde’s rock, Hagen proposes a plan: A potion will make Siegfried forget Brünnhilde and fall in love with Gutrune. To win her, he will claim Brünnhilde for Gunther. When Siegfried’s horn is heard from the river, Hagen calls him ashore. Gutrune offers him the potion. Siegfried drinks and immediately confesses his love for her.Ð When Gunther describes the perils of winning his chosen bride, Siegfried offers to use the Tarnhelm to transform himself into Gunther.

  • The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: the Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring Des Nibelungen Matthew Timmermans University of Ottawa
    Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Volume 8 | Issue 1 Article 6 The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: The Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen Matthew Timmermans University of Ottawa Recommended Citation Timmermans, Matthew (2015) "The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: The Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen," Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology: Vol. 8: Iss. 1, Article 6. The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: The Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen Abstract This essay explores how the architectural design of the Bayreuth Festspielhaus effects the performance of Wagner’s later operas, specifically Der Ring des Nibelungen. Contrary to Wagner’s theoretical writings, which advocate equality among the various facets of operatic production (Gesamtkuntswerk), I argue that Wagner’s architectural design elevates music above these other art forms. The evidence lies within the unique architecture of the house, which Wagner constructed to realize his operatic vision. An old conception of Wagnerian performance advocated by Cosima Wagner—in interviews and letters—was consciously left by Richard Wagner. However, I juxtapose this with Daniel Barenboim’s modern interpretation, which suggests that Wagner unconsciously, or by a Will beyond himself, created Bayreuth as more than the legacy he passed on. The juxtaposition parallels the revolutionary nature of Wagner’s ideas embedded in Bayreuth’s architecture. To underscore this revolution, I briefly outline Wagner’s philosophical development, specifically the ideas he extracted from the works of Ludwig Feuerbach and Arthur Schopenhauer, further defining the focus of Wagner’s composition and performance of the music. The analysis thereby challenges the prevailing belief that Wagner intended Bayreuth and Der Ring des Nibelungen, the opera which inspired the house’s inception, to embody Gesamtkunstwerk; instead, these creations internalize the drama, allowing the music to reign supreme.

  • Are Wagner's Views of 'Redemption'
    Are Wagner’s views of ‘Redemption’ relevant for the Twenty-first Century? Richard H. Bell 1 Introduction It is universally acknowledged that all the operas in the ‘Wagnerian canon’ to a greater or lesser extent concern redemption. Strictly speaking redemption (‘Erlösung’) means freeing a prisoner, captive or slave by paying a ransom. Wagner, like many others, employs the term as a metaphor, often as a ‘dead metaphor’;1 but, as will become clear, the essence of redemption for Wagner lies in the realm of ‘myth’. Further, for Wagner redemption is multi-dimen- sional2 and sometimes highly ambiguous. This reflects his reluc- tance to make his intentions too obvious should this impair ‘a pro- per understanding of the work in question’.3 The complexity of his thinking on redemption means that there are many avenues to explore when considering its relevance for the twenty-first century. To make this manageable I restrict my examples to Das Rheingold, Götterdämmerung, Tristan und Isolde, and Parsifal, and consider redemption under five aspects, all of which are interrelated: 1. social/political/economic; 2. psychologi- cal; 3. existential; 4. cosmological; 5. religious. Since all these ulti- 1 In a dead metaphor no thought is given to the fact that a metaphor is being employed, e.g. ‘leaf of the book’. 2 Cf.

  • WAGNER and the VOLSUNGS None of Wagner’S Works Is More Closely Linked with Old Norse, and More Especially Old Icelandic, Culture
    WAGNER AND THE VOLSUNGS None of Wagner’s works is more closely linked with Old Norse, and more especially Old Icelandic, culture. It would be carrying coals to Newcastle if I tried to go further into the significance of the incom- parable eddic poems. I will just mention that on my first visit to Iceland I was allowed to gaze on the actual manuscript, even to leaf through it . It is worth noting that Richard Wagner possessed in his library the same Icelandic–German dictionary that is still used today. His copy bears clear signs of use. This also bears witness to his search for the meaning and essence of the genuinely mythical, its very foundation.

Chow Southern Illinois University Carbondale, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: http://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/gs_rp CLOSING REMARKS In selecting music for this program, the works had instrumentation that fit with our ensemble, the Southern Illinois Sinfonietta, yet covering three major periods of music over just a little more than the past couple of centuries. As composers write more and more for a chamber ensemble like the musicians I have worked with to carry out this performance, it becomes more and more idiomatic for conductors like myself to explore their other compositions for orchestra, both small and large. Having performed my recital with musicians from both the within the Southern Illinois University Carbondale School of Music core and from the outside, this entire community has helped shaped my studies & my work as a graduate student here at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, bringing it all to a glorious end.

Lemares massiva transkriptionsarbete. I det här arbetet undersöks hur Lemares transkriptionskonst är utformad och hur hans metoder kan appliceras på eget transkriptionsarbete. Lemares och andras transkriptioner jämförs med Wagners originalpartitur för att metoder och verktyg ska kunna observeras. Dessa appliceras på en egen transkription, vars skapelseprocess redogörs för. Detta arbete visar att Lemare använder sig av en metodisk teknik som i stora drag grundar sig på det klangliga resultatets slutliga kvalitet. I det här arbetet beskrivs denna teknik relativt ingående, för att om möjligt bidra med insikter och metoder för den av transkriptioner intresserade.

  • Calderon-Schopenhauer-Wagner: Historia De Un Malentendido *
    CALDERON-SCHOPENHAUER-WAGNER: HISTORIA DE UN MALENTENDIDO * La noche del 2 de enero de 1869 Wagner y Cosima von Bülow, no casados todavla, escudriíían en su biblioteca, en Tribschen, en busca de algo para leer después de la cena. Según Cosima, descartan a Platón: el libro está en malas condiciones y necesita ser encuadernado de nuevo. Walbnstein de Schiller también es pasado por alto, pues lo habían leído pocas semanas antes. Una obra del dramaturgo español Pedro Calderón de la Barca (16001681) es rechazada como "demasiado sentimental" ("pathetisch"). Shakespeare también es dejado a un lado, y, finalmente, los dos se deciden por algunos pasajes de la Odisea (1, pág. 29) l. Cinco semanas más tarde, el 11 de febrero de 1869, Calderón entra en el diario de Cosima, con una aguda intuición del mismo Wagner, idea directamente relacionada con Parsifal, todavía en el fondo de su sub- consciente, esperando a ser compuesta unos nueve años después: "Ha- blamos mucho acerca de Calderón.

  • Diegeheimnissederformbeirich
    Intégral 30 (2016) pp. 81–98 Die Geheimnisse der Form bei Richard Wagner: Structure and Drama as Elements of Wagnerian Form* by Matthew Bribitzer-Stull Abstract. Wagnerian operatic forms span a continuum. At one end lie the delin- eated, non-developmental, “structural” kinds of shapes, at the other the “formless” streams of music that arguably depend on the extra-musical for their continuity and coherence. In between we find musical processes that embody more of a senseof motion and development than the fixed structures, but that cohere without the need of a text or programme. In this article I attempt to illustrate this range by applying my analytic methodology to two contrasting examples, one leaning heavily toward the structural (the Todesverkündigung scene from Die Walküre Act II, Scene 4) and the other (the Act II, Scene 2 love duet from Tristan und Isolde) best understood as a musi- cal representation of the drama. The overarching point I make with this comparison is that the range of Wagnerian formal techniques is best served by a flexible, multi- valent analytic orientation. Keywords and phrases: Wagner, opera, form, Alfred Lorenz, Tristan und Isolde, Der Ring des Nibelungen, Die Walküre. Introduction Lorenz’s study was the first serious attempt to present the formal process of the Wagnerian Musikdrama in a system- nyone familiar with Alfred Lorenz’s exhaustive analyses of Der Ring des Nibelungen, Tristan und Isolde, atic, analytic way, an argument against the then-prevalent A 1 Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, and Parsifal, published be- view that Wagner’s late music was formless.

This study examines Wagner’s adaptation of his source, the Tristan of Gottfried von Strassburg, to construct a character that represents the courtly chivalric society of the opera in opposition to the new order represented in Tristan’s passionate pursuit of love and, ultimately, of death. Building on literary scholarship of the Tristan tradition, this study explores issues of duality and decline in Mark’s character and the elements of his chivalric friendship with Tristan within the homosocial constructs of the courts. Through his use of traditional operatic lament form, associative orchestration, and text expression, Wagner constructs a king who is more nuanced that any of his predecessors: one cleansed by tragedy and capable of forgiveness.
