Book Synopsis Lohengrin: English National Opera Guide 47 by : Richard Wagner
Download or read book Lohengrin: English National Opera Guide 47 written by Richard Wagner and published by Calder Publications Limited. This book was released on 1993 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English National Opera Guides were originally conceived in partnership with the English National Opera and edited by Nicholas John, the ENO's dramaturg, who died tragically in an accident in the Alps. Most of the guides are devoted to a single opera, which is described in detail—with many articles that cover its history and information about the composer and his times. The complete libretto is included in both the original language and in a modern singing translation—except where the opera was written in English. Each has a thematic guide to the most important musical themes in musical notation and each guide is lavishly illustrated. They also contain a bibliography and a discography which is updated at each reprint. The ENO guides are widely regarded as the best series of their kind and excellent value.

Book Synopsis Verdi in Victorian London by : Massimo Zicari
Download or read book Verdi in Victorian London written by Massimo Zicari and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a byword for beauty, Verdi’s operas were far from universally acclaimed when they reached London in the second half of the nineteenth century. Why did some critics react so harshly? Who were they and what biases and prejudices animated them? When did their antagonistic attitude change? And why did opera managers continue to produce Verdi’s operas, in spite of their alleged worthlessness? Massimo Zicari’s Verdi in Victorian London reconstructs the reception of Verdi’s operas in London from 1844, when a first critical account was published in the pages of The Athenaeum, to 1901, when Verdi’s death received extensive tribute in The Musical Times. In the 1840s, certain London journalists were positively hostile towards the most talked-about representative of Italian opera, only to change their tune in the years to come. The supercilious critic of The Athenaeum, Henry Fothergill Chorley, declared that Verdi’s melodies were worn, hackneyed and meaningless, his harmonies and progressions crude, his orchestration noisy. The scribes of The Times, The Musical World, The Illustrated London News, and The Musical Times all contributed to the critical hubbub. Yet by the 1850s, Victorian critics, however grudging, could neither deny nor ignore the popularity of Verdi’s operas. Over the final three decades of the nineteenth century, moreover, London’s musical milieu underwent changes of great magnitude, shifting the manner in which Verdi was conceptualized and making room for the powerful influence of Wagner. Nostalgic commentators began to lament the sad state of the Land of Song, referring to the now departed "palmy days of Italian opera." Zicari charts this entire cultural constellation. Verdi in Victorian London is required reading for both academics and opera aficionados. Music specialists will value a historical reconstruction that stems from a large body of first-hand source material, while Verdi lovers and Italian opera addicts will enjoy vivid analysis free from technical jargon. For students, scholars and plain readers alike, this book is an illuminating addition to the study of music reception.

Book excerpt: The legend of the Swan Knight who rescues a princess from the forces of pagan evil is one of Christian Europe's foundation myths. Lohengrin transformed Wagner into an international figure almost overnight, and it remained his most popular work throughout the nineteenth century. Thomas Grey proposes that this was because it offered a "e;cautious taste"e; of his later works, while preserving some of the familiar traditions of French grand opera. John Deathridge asks why Wagner denied its Christian symbolism, and Janet Nelson argues that his vision of the Christian Middle Ages prefigured a modern historical approach. The English translation is by Amanda Holden.Contents: Wagner's 'Alter Ego', John Deathridge; Wagner's 'Lohengrin': between Grand Opera and Musikdrama, Thomas S.

Book excerpt: An excerpt from Chapter V. Music and Story - Side by Side: THE prelude to Lohengrin built up from a single beautiful motive which is admirably worked out, and which symbolises the return of the Holy Grail, escorted by a band of celestial beings, to the mysterious castle of Montsalvat, the mountain where it is guarded by faithful knights, pure and devout. This impressive melody, radiant with its suggestions of the supernatural, gives us a glimpse, as it were, of what Parsifal was to be. It reveals how Wagner built up, out of his wealth of ideas, his own particular method of expressing them. It is sufficient merely to hint at this making of a language, rather than to trace each analogy in separate works. First given to the violins, in the highest register, and divided among sets of four instruments, this motive drifts into the wood-wind, and is then taken up by the violas and violoncellos, passes through the horns, and finally swells gloriously and triumphantly in the brass. Like the blaze of a summer sunset, it dies away gradually and mysteriously, and ends in a whisper of the muted strings. Under a spreading oak, surrounded by the King's Ban, the Lords of Saxony and Thuringia, sits Heinrich the Fowler, the King of Germany. On the left, headed by Frederick of Telramund, are grouped the nobles and the people of Brabant. At the extreme corner stands Ortrud, daughter of the Frisian King, Frederick's wife and evil genius. In the background is the open country through which, by tortuous windings, the river Scheldt finds its way to the sea. Escorted by four trumpeters sounding the King's call, the King's Herald advances, and demands the fealty of the assembly. The King then describes the situation to his subjects. He tells them of the bitter strife with Hungary, and how he has obtained a long truce for the purpose of making strong his boundaries and disciplining his forces. The nine years have expired, and a final and conclusive blow will have to be struck at the invaders and disturbers of the peace. He then asks why internal quarrels in Brabant are menacing the unity of his empire, and why there is no prince to rule the country; and commands Frederick to give him a plain statement of affairs. This fine recitative on the part of the King is broken, in places, by the replies of the chorus.
