Day6

First Act of Siegfried by Wagner, conducted by Wilhelm Furtwangler in 1950 at La SCALA in Milan.

Not quite sure how much of an interlude there was between the composition of Die Walkure and Siegfried, but the first act has a completely different feel from the prior opera. Perhaps a more modern feel; but I could also be hallucinating from the heat and lack of AC.

Tomorrow calls for more Siegfriend and more hot weather.
