The second part of the show brings
us past the Bayreuth Nazi Era, and all the way up to the 1951
re-opening of the Festival after the war. This podcast features a
recording from the early 1920's where the original Bayreuth
Parsifal bells can be heard
(they were destroyed during World War II), a recording of the Good
Friday Spell conducted by Siegfried Wagner, the composer's son,
and an excerpt from the landmark 1951 Wieland Wagner Bayreuth production of
this opera, featuring baritone George London and tenor Wolfgang Windgassen.
In Microsoft Office 2010, Microsoft Office will support two separate yag versions, ie version 32 bit and 64 bit versions and Office 2010 will be the first to do Microsoft Publisher 2010 two different versions, in two different versions, Microsoft did not want a lot of talk about the advantages and differences of the two versions.Trial version of Microsoft Office 2010 a new plan could be tried at the end of this year, for the curious to the Office 2010 interface, you can see a preview image below, Microsoft OneNote 2010 the image below may be different from the final version of Microsoft Office 2010, Microsoft is now considering Office 2010 is still in the development stage and it might be different intrface.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity of listening to these otherwise rare performances. However, I would like to say that, yes, you can conduct Parsifal 1st Act Prelude more slowly than Muck: just listen to Levine. His recording from Bayreuth takes 16.23 minutes. Maybe Muck conveys more mysticism but this, in part, is also due to the misty sound of an orchestra that played some 80 years ago.
The second point concerns the relationship between Bayreuth and Hitler. True, Siegfried Wagner had strong inclinations towards Adolf Hitler but it was his very British wife Winifred who was the real enthusiast and stood by her Führer until the very end and never disowned her admiration and friendship for him.
I just thought this had to be stressed.
Thank you.
