from Trieste on when he sold the program opens with the
[01:36 - 01:41]
overture and functionality from the opera toys for the
[01:41 - 01:45]
work as we know it today was first presented at the Paris Opera in
[01:45 - 01:47]
1861.
[01:47 - 01:52]
And earlier production in 1845 had not included the knowledge
[01:52 - 01:57]
which is a ballet scene. Wagner added it for the Paris version
[01:57 - 02:03]
to satisfy the French public who demanded a ballet in every opera.
[02:03 - 02:08]
Unfortunately the only conceivable spot for the ballet was the opening scene.
[02:08 - 02:13]
But this was much too early for many of the patrons who dined late and didn't arrive
[02:13 - 02:17]
before the opera was half over. The members of the Jockey Club a group of
[02:17 - 02:22]
young men were especially irritated since they attended the opera to see the
[02:22 - 02:24]
ballet girls.
[02:24 - 02:29]
So they decided to organize a riot of protest and at the second and
[02:29 - 02:34]
third performances their antics were so disruptive that Wagner withdrew the
[02:34 - 02:35]
opera completely.
[02:35 - 02:41]
Now Microsoft you're on stage and is walking for the podium
[02:41 - 02:47]

Wagner and his many Symphony Orchestra conducted by
[24:07 - 24:13]
Rudolf.
[24:13 - 24:18]
Aleut on the Yser was defeated in Paris. Many people seem to Wagner's defense
[24:18 - 24:23]
you know the French composer said would that God would send me
[24:23 - 24:30]
just such a defeat.
[24:30 - 24:35]
Young lives are had the distinction of receiving both the best and the worst in the
[24:35 - 24:40]
way of criticism and Raj Hans like the famous Viennese critic praised it
[24:40 - 24:45]
highly but Wagner himself in later years referred to it as
[24:45 - 24:46]
his worst.
[24:46 - 24:52]
For.
[24:52 - 24:57]
The next selection from Wagner's opera with her drummer on. The twilight of the
[24:57 - 25:03]
gods. You'll hear Dawn Siegfried's Rhine journey and funeral music.
[25:03 - 25:07]
With her Demerol Angus one of the four music dramas which are called collectively
[25:07 - 25:10]
the ring of the navel on.
[25:10 - 25:15]
The entire production of the four Ring operas took twenty eight years in
[25:15 - 25:20]
the twilight of the gods the last of the four was written between 1867
[25:20 - 25:25]
and 1874. The idea for the last
[25:25 - 25:30]
music drama actually came first in 1848. Wagner
[25:30 - 25:35]
began the libretto for an opera to be called The Death of Siegfried but
[25:35 - 25:40]
before he composed the score he decided to preface the work with another called The
[25:40 - 25:45]
Young Siegfried. These two eventually became the twilight of the
[25:45 - 25:50]
gods the fourth opera. And Siegfried became the third.
[25:50 - 25:55]
Having gone this far Wagner then conceived the VOC theory as the second
[25:55 - 25:59]
music drama and the rhyme called as the first.
[25:59 - 26:04]
It was only after the four librettos were written that Wagner began to work consistently on
[26:04 - 26:08]
the music and this time in forward order rather than in reverse.
[26:08 - 26:15]
Jack Rudolph has returned to the stage of music offered to conduct the
[26:15 - 26:20]
Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra in Don Siegfried's Rhine journey and
[26:20 - 26:25]
funeral music from good or dumb around the twilight of the gods by
[26:25 - 26:26]
Ricardo Wagner.
[26:26 - 29:39]
The inner do.
[29:39 - 29:40]

[44:49 - 45:52]

[45:52 - 46:04]
Thought
[46:04 - 46:21]
we just heard orchestral excerpts from Wagner opera in the twilight of the gods.
[46:21 - 46:25]
Don Siegfried's Rhine journey and funeral music has
[46:25 - 46:29]
infinity Symphony Orchestra conducted by Max Rudolf.
[46:29 - 46:42]
Many of.
[46:42 - 46:47]
Your friends tried to discourage him from attempting such a large production as the
[46:47 - 46:52]
ring leader long but nothing no one could dissuade
[46:52 - 46:57]
him only did he complete the great work. But he had a theatre built
[46:57 - 47:00]
especially for producing the fest. And.
[47:00 - 47:00]
Byron
[47:00 - 47:16]
for many reasons the production of The Complete ring became less and less
[47:16 - 47:18]
frequent.
[47:18 - 47:21]
Then in 1953 came the revival of the fresh
[47:21 - 47:26]
new ideas as they were under the supervision of.
[47:26 - 47:28]
The composer's grandson.
[47:28 - 47:48]
Second. Time for. Your prelude. You write. One. Read. From.
[47:48 - 47:53]
Lohengrin excerpt from. Act 3 from Michael Singh are
[47:53 - 47:57]
numbered and Caillou and leave if. You.
[47:57 - 47:58]
Feel
[47:58 - 48:05]
it.
[48:05 - 48:09]
Intermission time now in Cincinnati is music hall. And we pause for
[48:09 - 48:14]
station identification. This is the national educational
[48:14 - 48:15]
radio network.
