SUMMARY:From Richard I to Richard III: Wagner\, Strauss and Questions of Influence
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Muller’s lecture\, with musical and visual illustrations\, highlighted the Met’s upcoming Strauss operas: Ariadne auf Naxos (March 1–17\, 2022) and Elektra (April 1–20\, 2022). A Juilliard professor since 1980\, Prof. Muller also lectures for other organizations and he presented WSNY’s Bayreuth lectures from 2010–2019. \nFrom Richard I to Richard III: it’s not a typo! Prof. Muller states: “There is no Richard II\, that’s the point. There had to be an interregnum after Wagner. This idea goes back to Hans von Bülow\, who made the remark about Richard  I and III.” \nSupplementary materials: \nClick here for the List of Strauss Operas \nClick here for the Wagner-Strauss Orchestral Comparison

SUMMARY:Wagner & German Nationalism with Prof. Michael P. Steinberg
DESCRIPTION:Description: \nProf. Michael P. Steinberg of Brown University and co-curator of the recent exhibit in Berlin’s German Historical Museum explained the influence of Wagner on German nationalism in the mid-19th century and its lasting impact on German self-identity. As Prof. Steinberg explained to The New York Times\, “You can’t have a naïve and beautiful production of a Wagner opera in Germany. It’s impossible.” The presentation took place at the National Opera Center in New York City\, followed by a social hour with refreshments. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n“In Germany... every production of Wagner has to take the history of Wagner\, the political history of Wagner\, the history of German taste into account. There is no way to be innocent about Wagner in Germany.” – Prof. Michael P. Steinberg (Brown University) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers & guests socialize after the presentation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nF.

SUMMARY:Barry Millington: A Collision of Like-Minded Souls
DESCRIPTION:Barry Millington (editor of The Wagner Journal\, author of The Sorcerer of Bayreuth) will join us from England in a pre-recorded talk to discuss his recent research on the relationship among Wagner\, painter Edward Burne-Jones\, and author George Eliot. These three sensationally gifted late-18th century artists had substantial influence on each other and the age in which they lived. Millington calls it “A Collision of Like-Minded Souls.” This is a members-only\, online-only event; members will receive a livestream link automatically via e-mail; no need to pre-register. \nAbout the speaker: Barry Millington is Chief Music Critic for the London Evening Standard and founder/editor of The Wagner Journal.  He is the author and editor or co-editor of eight books on Wagner\, including Wagner\, The Wagner Compendium\, The Ring of the Nibelung: A Companion and Selected Letters of Richard Wagner\, and also contributed the articles on Wagner and his operas to The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians and The New Grove Dictionary of Opera. His latest Wagner book\, The Sorcerer of Bayreuth\, was published by Thames & Hudson/OUP in 2012. He was the founder and artistic director of the Hampstead & Highgate Festival (1999–2003)\, has acted as dramaturgical adviser at international opera houses\, and co-founded the ensemble Counterpoise\, working with artists such as Sir John Tomlinson and Sir Willard White. He was co-director of Wagner 200\, a wide-ranging series of events celebrating the bicentenary of Wagner’s birth in 2013\, and is known also as a broadcaster and lecturer. He organises concerts and a music appreciation series in Hampstead Garden Suburb and has belatedly begun to develop a low-profile career locally as a collaborative pianist.
