The Richard Wagner Complete Edition presents the composer's entire output for the first time in a reliable form. The conductor Michael Balling, in the early years of the 20th century, attempted to make Wagner's work more accessible for research and performance, but the edition only reached 10 volumes - some with grave shortcomings - and was discontinued after Balling's death in 1925. A further attempt at a complete edition by Otto Strobel was abandoned at the preliminary stages. This third attempt at a complete edition will be the first scholarly, critical edition, based on an evaluation of all the accessible source materials and the latest findings of serious Wagner research. As the edition is also intended for practical performance, the musical text has been kept free of philological insertions ; these are listed in the appendices of each volume in the Critical Commentary. Numerous, partly unpublished works - some relatively unknown - and variant versions are published here for the first time. The edition presents authentic texts for Wagner specialists and researchers and critically based performing materials. Contrary to widely held opinions, even the well-known works of Wagner are not necessarily available in reliable editions. The genesis, history and performances directed by Wagner himself are extensively documented so as to present as complete an image as possible of Wagner's compositional intentions.

L'avant scène opéra no 34/35 : Tristan et Isolde

Les Maîtres Chanteurs/Die Meistersinger

While Wagner is a key figure in the world of opera, this 'Fantasie in fis moll' for solo piano offers a rare chance to glimpse into his compositional development. Written at 18, this was the first work Wagner presented to a composition teacher. Despite lacking the mature compositional voice present in his later works, one can see the raw, creative talent of a master in the making, including references to a great composer he admired, Beethoven.

Während Wagner in der Welt der Oper als zentrale Figur bekannt ist, bietet diese 'Fantasie in Fis Moll' für das Soloklavier eine seltene Gelegenheit, Einblick in seine kompositorische Entwicklung zu erhalten. Geschrieben im Alter von 18 Jahren war dies die erste Arbeit, die Wagner seinem Kompositionslehrer vorstellte. Trotz der noch fehlenden Reife seiner kompositorischen Stimme scheint hier das rohe, kreative Talent eines sich heranbildenden Meisters durch, mit vielen Verweisen auf einen grossen, von ihm bewunderten Komponisten, Beethoven.

Fantasie in fis-moll - Piano Solo

A Norwegian brig is driven out of her course on the homeward voyage, and near the rockbound Norwegian Coast meets with the phantom ship of the "Flying Dutchman." Daland, the captain of the Norwegian vessel, enters into a compact with the "Flying Dutchman" whose identity, however, is unknown to him, to give him a home and his daughter, Senta, for a wife, in consideration of the rich treasures stored away in the "Flying Dutchman's" ship.

Der Fliegende Hollaender

Il aura fallu une petite semaine, à l'occasion de l'insurrection démocratique de Dresde en mai 1849, pour que Richard Wagner, dont la carrière de compositeur officiel commençait juste à décoller, envoie promener ses ambitions et se jette à corps perdu dans la bataille révolutionnaire. Ses amis, qu'il côtoie à l'époque sur les barricades, s'appellent alors Michel Bakounine ou August Rockel. Contrairement à ces derniers - qui seront capturés et condamnés à mort - Wagner parvient à fuir après la défaite, traqué par toutes les polices d'Allemagne. Avant, pendant et après l'échec de la Révolution saxonne, sa pensée politique, parfois radicale quoique souvent confuse et sinueuse, se sera exprimée dans un certain nombre d'articles, de libelles, de pamphlets largement oubliés dont l'Art et la Révolution (1849) constitue certainement l'un des exemples les plus aboutis. Wagner y prononce - au nom d'un Art idéal, social et unificateur droit issu de la Grèce antique - une sentence de mort implacable contre la vieille société bourgeoise, contre sa division du Travail, son amour de l'Argent corrupteur, sa repoussante médiocrité. Étrange destinée que celle de cet homme, promu des décennies plus tard l'idole de cette oligarchie auparavant tant abhorrée, sinon l'inspirateur de sa fraction la plus réactionnaire et obscurantiste. C'est cette contradiction vivante, exceptionnelle, au sein d'une même trajectoire artistique qui se trouve aujourd'hui présentée au lecteur.

Art et la revolution (l')

Although 'Rhinegold', like any of the following three parts, is a drama on its own, it reveals its entire meaning only as introduction to the complete work. In 'The Nibelung's Ring', Wagner used his own word creations the principal characteristics of which are effective alliterations. For the first time, this first part of the 'Ring' also contains the 'reminiscence motifs' (it was not until after Wagner's death that Hans von Wolzogen invented the expression of the 'leitmotif' as it is used today). Apart from the libretto, this edition contains introductory commentaries of Kurt Pahlen who also adds information on the compositional structure and context to the musical as well as external and internal dramatic action of the opera. A short synopsis and a brief outline of the genesis bring the work into relation with the composer's entire oeuvre and life, thus offering a comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction. WWV 86 A
