Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English National Opera Guides are ideal companions to the opera. They provide stimulating introductory articles together with the complete text of each opera in English and the original. The opening evening of Wagner's four-part cycle, "The Ring of Nibelung," stands apart as more naive and picturesque than the others. But it immediately establishes the huge scale of the overall work, and the extraordinary musical language that will be displayed throughout. It is a miracle of musical history that Wagner's 1850 conception could be brought to completion, in an organic whole, some 25 years later. Stewart Spencer discusses the way in which Wagner fuses genuine mythology with his own invention and John Deathridge places The Rhinegold in the context of The Ring and its century.

This book was released on 2018-06-27 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Size: 8 1/2" x 11" * * * * * * From the introductory. THE most popular of all operas at the present time is "Lohengrin." Yet when Wagner had completed that opera, in the spring of 1848, he was unable to get it performed at the Royal Opera in Dresden, where he was conductor. This was one reason why he joined in the revolutionary movement and was, consequently, obliged to seek safety in flight. He went to Switzerland, where he wrote essays and books, but composed no operas, for nearly "six years. When, at last, the desire to compose came back to him, "RHEINGOLD" was the result. "RHEINGOLD" is the first of the four music dramas constituting the great tetralogy, "The Ring of the Nibelung," which is usually called a trilogy, because Wagner himself designated " RHEINGOLD" as a" Fore-evening," or prelude, to the other three dramas -- "Die Walküre," "Siegfried," and "Gotterdammerung." The name Prelude is not inappropriate, because "RHEINGOLD" is much shorter than the three operas which constitute the trilogy, lasting, as it does, only five half-hours, while the duration of the others is nearer five whole hours. Shortly after completing "Lohengrin," Wagner made a prose sketch of the story of the "Nibelung's Ring." Then he wrote a dramatic poem, "Siegfried's Death," in which he made use of part of that story. While preparing to set this to music, he became convinced that the subject was too big for one drama; that there was material enough for several connected operas; and that the opera he had had in mind would be more intelligible and impressive if it were preceded by several others dealing with the incidents that led up to Siegfried's death; consequently he recast the poem he had called "Siegfried's Death," and changed its name to "Gotterdammerung." Then he wrote "Siegfried," "Die Walkure," and "Rheingold." The poems of the "Ring" dramas were, therefore, written in the reverse order to their performance. The musical compositions, however, began with "Rheingold," and ended with "Gotterdammerung."

Download or read book Wagner's Das Rheingold written by Warren Darcy and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1993 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Wagner's opera Das Rheingold is a milestone in the composer's output and in the history of music in general. It marked Wagner's return to operatic composition after a hiatus of five years, and signified his definitive break with earlier operatic conventions. It also represents a reconsideration of the whole question of dramatic-musical form, and the role of tonality in articulating this form. Warren Darcy traces here the genesis of Das Rheingold through the various textual and musical sketches and drafts to the full score, and also develops a theoretical framework within which the opera may be meaningfully analysed. Using Wagner's manuscripts as a point of departure, Darcy discusses the formal, harmonic, and linear structure of the work. In so doing, he challenges a number of contemporary views about the opera, including those of Curt von Westernhagen and Carl Dahlhaus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, more than a century after its first performance, Richard Wagner's The Ring of Nibelung endures as one of the most significant artistic creations in the history of opera. This monumental work not only altered previously accepted concepts of music and drama but also inspired creative and intellectual efforts far beyond the field of opera. Previous studies of the Ring have appealed only to those already acquainted in some way with the Wagnerian art. For the uninitiated, Wagner and his landmark creation have seemed forbidding, and those eager to learn about the masterpiece have faced a vast and frequently esoteric body of commentary. Professor Cord addresses the interests of the non-specialist by taking the reader first into Wagner's unique intent, and then through the complete history of the Ring. Cord, who has attended forty performances of the Ring, considers the conception of the poem, its development into a music-drama exemplifying Wagnerian thought, its introduction to the world, and the reactions and interpretation it elicits.
