Wagner's mystical opera makes extraordinary demands on the conductor, but James Levine is renowned for the special affection and authority he brings to this transcendent work. The music shimmers and glows, evoking the legendary world of the Knights of the Holy Grail and the pure fool who brings healing power to the land. Peter Hofmann stars as the questing title hero, Jerome Hines sings the wise old man, Gurnemanz, and Mignon Dunn is the voluptuous Kundry, whose erotic temptations almost ensnare the young hero

This is one of the legendary performances from the Met's vast archive of historic broadcasts.

He awakens her with a kiss--and sets in motion the events that, in the following opera, will bring about the end of the world. Kerstin Thorborg co-stars as Erda and Artur Bodanzky conducts

This opera has been described as "the longest single smile in the German language". But Roland Matthews indicates that violence is not far beneath the surface of this portrait of medieval Nuremberg. Arnold Whittall's analysis gives us a bird's-eye view of the complexity of the score. Timothy McFarland explores the significance of the choice of subject: that nostalgia for a pre-industrial community, which was a symptom of the German nationalist movement. The long tet as many subtleties which opera audiences can hardly appreciate without reading it, and the musical themes are numbered to indicate where they occur

Richard Wagner's Beethoven (1870) by
Richard Wagner(
)
208 editions published between 1820 and 2021 in 8 languages and held by 2,924 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Despite the enormous and accelerating worldwide interest in Wagner leading to the bicentenary of his birth in 2013, his prose writings have received scant scholarly attention. Wagner's book-length essay on Beethoven, written to celebrate the centenary of Beethoven's birth in 1870, is really about Wagner himself rather than Beethoven. It is generally regarded as the principal aesthetic statement of the composer's later years, representing a reassessment ofthe ideas of the earlier Zurich writings, especially Oper und Drama, in the light of the experience gained through the composition of Tristan und Isolde, Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg and the greater part of Der Ring des Nibelungen. It contains Wagner's most complete exegesis of his understanding of Schopenhauer's philosophy and its perceived influence on the compositional practice of his later works. The essay also influenced the young Nietzsche. It is an essential text in the teaching of not only Wagnerian thought but also late nineteenth-century musical aesthetics in general. Until now the English reader with no access to the German original has been obliged to work from two Victorian translations. This brand new edition gives the German original and the newly translated English text on facing pages. It comes along with a substantial introduction placing the essay not onlywithin the wider historical and intellectual context of Wagner's later thought but also in the political context of the establishment of the German Empire in the 1870s. The translation is annotated throughout with a full bibliography. Richard Wagner's Beethoven will be indispensable reading for historians and musicologists as well as those interested in Wagner's philosophy and the aesthetics of music.

Die beiden Werke dieser CD zeigen die jeweiligen Komponisten auf Gebieten, die nicht zu ihren eigentlichen Domänen zählen: Richard Wagner komponierte seine sinfonische Dichtung Siegfried-Idyll als Geburtstagsgeschenk für seine Frau Cosima zur Erinnerung an die Geburt ihres 1. Sohnes Siegfried, uraufgeführt wurde es 1870. Bruckners Streichquintett F-Dur entstand als Replik auf den Vorschlag eines Geigers, Bruckner könne doch mal ein Kammermusikwerk komponieren. Das Werk ist von heiterer Grundstimmung, es steht in einer Reihe mit den grossen Quintetten von Schubert, Brahms, Dvorák u.a. und wurde zu seinen Lebzeiten eines der erfolgreichsten Werke Bruckners. In der Aufnahme mit dem Württembergischen Kammerorchester Heilbronn unter Ruben Gazarian erklingt Bruckners Quintett in der Streichorchesterfassung. Wagner feiert 2013 Jahr seinen 200. Geburtstag, da sollten nicht nur seine Opern im Bestand sein. Sehr empfohlen
