Richard Wagner's
Die WalkΓΌre
Die WalkΓΌre (The Valkyrie) is the second music drama of the

one deals with the relationship of the Volsang twins, Sieglinde and Siegmund,
separated as children, who meet as adults and fall in love. Their incestuous
relationship angers the gods and there is hell to pay.

OPERA ON THE INTERNET
WITH
DAVE D’AGUANNO
This week
OperaVision once again has another opera video for us to enjoy. Tomorrow you
can watch a June 2018 performance of Verdi's "Falstaff" in a
Garsington Opera production.
Then on
Saturday, you can watch a LIVE performance from the Met of Wagner's "Die
Walkure" if you choose to attend the HD-transmission of the work in one of
the local movie theatres that carry the Met HD-transmissions. Or you can listen
in on one of the many internet radio stations that will transmit the audio
version of the performance.
On the other
hand, you may opt for the LIVE video-stream from Munich of Puccini's "La
Fanciulla del West" with an interesting cast which includes Brandon
Jovanovich in the leading tenor role of Dick Johnson.
Then again,
if you're in a "Mozart mood" (so to speak), there's a broadcast from
earlier this month on BBC Radio 3 of "The Magic Flute" in an Opera
North (Leeds) production.
One of
Tchaikovsky's most brilliant scores (which should probably be heard far more
often) is that of "The Maid of Orleans." ORF (Austria) will be
broadcasting the March 19th Viennese performance of the work.
Swiss
composer Othmar Schoeck's opera "Das Schloss Durande" ("Durande
Castle") gets another radio broadcast, being given some much-needed
attention after the first fully complete version of the work (composed during
World War II) wasn't heard until earlier this year. This time around, it's
German Radio which is allowing us to hear this work, as performed in Meiningen
on March 8.
Enjoy!
