This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Language of Richard Wagner's Ring Des Nibelungen Several years before his demise came the noted reform by Gluck. There is no evidence that Gluck wrote a single German Opera, but this was chiefly the fault of existing conditions. What could a man of his stamp do with such libretti as those that have just been referred to? He held the stringent views upon the relation of text and music which the Florentine Camar ata had promulgated before him, hence it was natural that he should look about for the very best texts. Of these he found none worthy of consideration at the beginning of his career, and in later life, in a foreign country and engaged with foreign pro ductions, he felt the impossibility of writing a German opera. Though be seriously thought of putting Klopstock's Hermans schlacht to music, he was never fortunate enough to have a close acquaintance with the great literary men Of his time and country, though these were in sympathy with his reform. Wie land1 writes: At last we have lived to see the time when the mighty genius of Gluck has undertaken the great task of musical reform. The success of his 'orpheus' would justify the greatest hopes were there no insurmountable difficulties to defeat his best intentions even in those European cities where the fine arts own the foremost temples. It is a great and courageous undertaking to elevate these arts to their original dignity and honor, which the rabble is wont to look upon as a means for sensuality, and to establish nature upon that throne which for so long a time has been usurped by the capricious power of custom, luxury and wanton sensuality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wagner's Der Ring Des Nibelungen It was in the eventful year 1848 that Wagner finished the instrumentation of Lohengrin, The political troubles between Germany and Saxony were affecting things in general; and Wagner, it will be remembered, was drawn into the vortex. But to his active mind, such things were mere side issues; and he was searching for a new subject on which to work out his scheme for the Lyric Drama. That something vast in idea and scope was alone likely to be chosen, appears from the themes which he took up, examined and discarded.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A superb new translation of one of the greatest nineteenth century poems: the libretto to Wagner's Ring cycle The scale and grandeur of Wagner's The Ring of the Nibelung has no precedent and no successor. It preoccupied Wagner for much of his adult life and revolutionized the nature of opera, the orchestra, the demands on singers and on the audience itself. The four operas-The Rhinegold, The Valkyrie, Siegfried and Twilight of the Gods - are complete worlds, conjuring up extraordinary mythological landscapes through sound as much as staging. Wagner wrote the entire libretto before embarking on the music. Discarding the grand choruses and bravura duets central to most operas, he used the largest musical forces in the context often of only a handful of singers on stage. The words were essential: he was telling a story and making an argument in a way that required absolute attention to what was said. The libretto for The Ring lies at the heart of nineteenth century culture. It is in itself a work of power and grandeur and it had an incalculable effect on European and specifically German culture. John Deathridge's superb new translation, with notes and a fascinating introduction, is essential for anyone who wishes to get to grips with one of the great musical experiences.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nibelung's Ring: English Words to Richard Wagner's Ring Des Nibelungen, in the Alliterative Verse of the Original ("Die Liebe lockte den Lenz.") Winter has waned upon his stormy wing - the woods are wild with flowers - before my eyes Spring on the world lies like a lover lies - the birds have bursts of song for everything - it seems as if the ceaseless blossoming, the splendour and the spell can never tire - for if night comes the moon is like a fire - and yet my sadness will not let me sing. Mine is the single sorrow - how shall I bring to my heart the heart I long to bring? - My heart so bleeds at my own bitter cry I taste its blood - as Siegfried, for the ring, did Fafner's, and a bird, as it goes by, laughs "Love's enough - 'twas Love that lured the Spring!"

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ethics of Wagner's: The Ring of the Nibelung This study was made with, and in the interest of, a body of musicians and musically inclined people. At first the characters of The Ring appeared to the present writer as a motley assem blage of people who moved in a round of inci dents that seemed meaningless or absurd, and, Sphinx-like, refused to explain the reasons for their existence. But on closer acquaintance personage after personage, and situation after situation yielded up a meaning and became intelligible.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Ring of the Nibelung: The Trilogy of Richard Wagner Its Origin, Story, and Music To endeavor to say much that is new or original about "The Ring of the Nibelung" would be a rash undertaking at this day. This little book is not such an undertaking. Its presentation of the origin, source, and musical structure of Wagner's great trilogy is founded largely upon the labors of others. The author acknowledges a deep indebtedness to Hans von Wolzogen's thematic analysis, to Mr. Henderson's and Mr. Finck's biographies of the master, to Miss Weston's discussion of the legends, to Mr. Krehbiel's "Studies," and to other works in less degree.
