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.

Accidental Tourism in Wagner's Bayreuth
1 Accidental Tourism in Wagner’s Bayreuth An Analysis of Visitors’ Motivations and Experiences in Wagner’s Bayreuth. Myrto Moraitou Master Thesis Dissertation Accidental Tourism in Wagner’s Bayreuth An analysis of visitors’ motivations and experiences in Wagner’s Bayreuth Master Thesis Name: Myrto Moraitou Student number: 433480 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. S. L. Reijnders Date: June 12th 2018 Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication Arts, Culture and Society Erasmus University Rotterdam Accidental Tourism in Wagner’s Bayreuth An analysis of visitors’ motivations and experiences in Wagner’s Bayreuth Abstract This research offers an analysis of the motivations and experiences of visitors in Wagner’s Bayreuth. Wagner’s Bayreuth is a great example of music tourism as it is maybe the first site where music lovers from around the world visited in order to listen and experience classical music. Taking as a starting point the theories developed on music tourism studies on sites related to popular music such as the ones of Connell and Gibson (2003), Gibson and Connell (2005, 2007) and Bolderman and Reijnders (2016), this research will try to identify whether these theories apply also on the classical music field, based on the example of Wagner’s Bayreuth. This paper addresses four visitor elements; the motivation, the expectation, the experience and evaluation of the above. The personal ‘identity’ of each visitor plays also an important role on their motives and evaluation procedure of the experience, as it defines the relationship between the visitor and the place and also the way of evaluation through their personal story. Through the analysis of these elements, using a qualitative approach with in depth interviews based on these elements, the findings suggest that there are some similarities in the behavior of the visitors between Wagner’s Bayreuth and previous researches on popular culture sites. -

Posta spesso in secondo piano rispetto alla seconda e più celebre “La Tempesta”, una delle poche composizioni beethoveniane ad avere un riferimento esplicito all’opera di Shakespeare, la n. 1 è invece un’opera straordinaria e innovativa, il cui carattere giocoso e umoristico è chiaro fin dal primo movimento. L’adagio grazioso è scritto nello stile operistico italiano precedente a Rossini: è presente una varietà di articolazioni, che sembrano di volta in volta pronunciare, declamare e cantare il materiale musicale e tematico. Il Rondò allegretto, presenta un tema tipico di questa forma con molte ripetizioni. Alla fine, frammentate da pause, le ripetizioni dell’accordo di tonica spaziano dal pianissimo al fortissimo, ricordando le ultime battute del Primo movimento.
