This last act!''I fear the opera will be banned ' if the whole work is not parodied through bad performance: only mediocre performances can save me! Thoroughly good ones will surely drive people crazy.'Richard WagnerWhile working on the score to 'Tristan und Isolde', Richard Wagner expressed his excitement and elation about his new musical drama. Indeed, the radical originality of the work proved to be both unique and forward-looking: Over 150 years ago it signified the 'dawn' of the modern era and to this day it has not lost any of its fascination. Throughout his life, Richard Wagner was proud of his even handwriting.He constantly strove to produce manuscripts of a high calligraphic standard. The Tristan manuscript is also clearly written. More so than in his other scores however, traces of his working process are evident. It is precisely this aspect of the autograph that makes it fascinating. Reading it, one is witness to Wagner's highlyconcentrated, powerful and relentless writing. This manuscript is in every possible way unparalleled reflecting individuality and uniqueness.In time for the 200th anniversary of Wagner's birth in 2013, this great work will be published as a BÄRENREITER FACSIMILE in cooperation with the National Archive of the Richard-Wagner-Stiftung Bayreuth. In addition to the complete score, the edition includes the autograph concert ending of the Vorspiel as well as three pages that Wagner rejected while composing and later used for sketches.Ulrich Konrad, the renowned musicologist describes the genesis and performance history of the work in his comprehensive commentary. He also details the physical appearance and condition of the autograph as well as giving an insight into the musical language of Wagner.

In 1857 and 1858 as Richard Wagner had come to the completion of Die Walkure the second installment in his epic opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen he took time out to write a series of lieder for (and based on poems by)Mathilde Wesendonck with whom Wagner was believed to have been at the very least extremely infatuated. Whatever the truth might have been behind their relationship it is known that Wagner had met Mathilde's husband Otto inZurich and his ensuing friendship with the couple led to this beautiful set of lieder.Wagner himself called two of the set's songs (Im Treibhaus and Traume) 'studies' for his magnificent opera Tristan andIsolde and though originally intended for female voice with piano all of these songs were eventually orchestrated either by Wagner (in the case of Traume) or by other composers. When they were first performed in 1862 they weretitled Five Songs for a Female Voice. In the 20th century they also became very popular songs for some of the greatest tenors.Much earlier in 1839 Wagner had composed a three-song cycle called Trois Melodies. The firstpiece entitled Dors mon enfant was a lullaby that Wagner ascribed to an unnamed young poet of his publisher's acquaintance and of which he wrote that his wife had called 'heavenly for sending one to sleep'. He thenset Ronsard's song Mignonne and Victor Hugo's L'attente (from that author's Orientales) to round out the set. Wagner offered L'attente to the reigning diva of the time Pauline Viardot who is said to have flatly refused it.Wagner wrote in his memoirs My Life 'I have no reason to be ashamed of these small pieces.'Listen to brilliant tenor Jon Robert Cart perform these lieder. Then he steps aside and you take center stage with yourvirtuoso accompanist Narciso Solero at the piano.

L'édition complète Richard Wagner présente toute la production du compositeur pour la première fois sous une forme fiable. Le chef d'orchestre Michael Balling, dans les premières années du 20ème siècle, a tenté de faire l'oeuvre de Wagner plus accessible pour la recherche et de la performance, mais la seule édition a atteint 10 volumes - certains avec de graves lacunes - et a été abandonnée après la mort de Balling 1925. Une autre tentative à une édition complète par Otto Strobel a été abandonné à des stades préliminaires.Cette troisième tentative à une édition complète sera le premier scientifique, édition critique, fondée sur une évaluation de toutes les matières de source accessibles et les dernières découvertes de la recherche Wagner grave. Comme l'édition est également destiné à la performance pratique, le texte musical a été maintenu libre d'insertions philologiques- ceux-ci sont énumérées dans les annexes de chaque volume dans le commentaire critique. De nombreux inédits, des oeuvres en partie - certains relativement inconnus - versions et variantes sont publiés ici pour la première fois. L'édition présente des textes authentiques pour les spécialistes de Wagner et des chercheurs et critique des matériaux à base de la scène. Contrairement à l'opinion largement répandue, même les oeuvres bien connues de Wagner ne sont pas nécessairement disponibles dans les éditions fiables. La genèse, l'histoire et les performances réalisés par Wagner lui-même sont largement documentés de façon à présenter une image aussi complète que possible des intentions de la composition de Wagner. / Soliste, Choeur Et Orchestre

Siegfried is the third of the four operas that constitute Richard Wagner?s ?Der Ring des Nibelungen? (The Ring of the Nibelung). Wagner wrote the libretto and music for this cycle of four epic operas over the course of about twenty-six years from 1848 to 1874. The Ring premiered at the Bayreuth Festspielhaus over 4 days from 13 to 17 August 1876. This part of the cycle is primarily inspired by the story of the legendary hero Sigurd in Norse mythology.Siegfried is a man without fear and he expresses to his foster father Mime his wish to learn to fear. Mime tells him that the wise learn fear quickly but the stupid find it moredifficult. Siegfried learns fear when he discovers the sleeping Brünnhilde in Act 3.G. Schirmer Opera Score Editions presents Richard Wagner?s Siegfried with both the original German lyrics and in English translation (translated by Frederick Jameson). The Orchestra parts have been transcribed into a Piano accompaniment and dramatisation instructions added where relevant. The Voice parts which are true to the original feature chorus solo and duet sections of the characters: Siegfried (Tenor) Mime (Tenor) The Wanderer (Bass) Alberich (Bass) Fafner (Bass) Erda (Alto) and Brunhilde (Soprano).

Richard Wagner's Tristan and Isolde for Voice and Piano accompaniment.  Tristan and Isolde is an opera or music drama in three acts by Richard Wagner to a German libretto by the composer based largely on the 12th-century romance Tristan by Gottfried von Strassburg.

The story of the Dutch sea-captain cursed to wander the earth unendingly featured three themes that were of enduring interest to Wagner: the Wanderer on his Quest Redemption through Self-sacrifice and Pre-destined Love. The story is that a storm drives Daland's ship off course. A ghostly schooner arrives and its captain the Flying Dutchman steps ashore. He is bound to his ship as he once pledged to sail around the Cape of Good Hope if it took him forever. Once every seven years he may leave his ship in search of a woman who will save him from his deathless wandering if she is faithful until death. Daland offers his daughter Senta’s hand in marriage. As theyapproach the village Senta’s suitor Erik notices she is preoccupied. He relates a frightening dream in which he saw her sail away with the Dutchman and Senta exclaims that this is her own dream as well and pledges her faithfulness to him. Erik is not happy and insists that Senta is his. The Dutchman overhearing believes himself betrayed and sets sail. Senta runs to the top of a cliff proclaiming herself faithful unto death and leaps into the sea. Their ghostly forms are seen together ascending to Heaven. This is the Schirmer edition of the Vocal Score with an essay by W.J. Henderson and an English translation of Wagner's text by Troutbeck and Baker.
