Maestro Ethan Iverson sent this deeply delightful piece of work my way. Lambert recorded it in 1941. Other items that I played in the course of today's Wagner lecture:
— Lohengrin Prelude; Kempe, Vienna Philharmonic (EMI)
— Stan Kenton, "The Ride of the Valkyries" (h/t Mark Stryker)
— Tristan Prelude; Carlos Kleiber, Dresden Staatskapelle (DG)
— Isolde's "Frau Minne will, es werde Nacht"; Flagstad, Furtwängler, Philharmonia (EMI)
— Excerpts from Act II of Walküre; Milinkovič, Hotter, Keilberth, Bayreuth 1955 (Testament)
— Excerpts from Act III of Parsifal; Pape, Domingo, Thielemann, Vienna State Opera (DG)
— Parsifal Act III Verwandlungsmusik; Muck, Berlin State Opera, 1928 (Naxos)
Many thanks to all who came out to see the talk!
