Taking Wagner in stride

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!
