R. Wagner - Wesendonck Lieder - interpretative view
Morozová, Tamara ; HAJÓSSYOVÁ, Magdaléna (advisor) ; JONÁŠOVÁ, Jana (referee)
In the work of Richard Wagner, which is constituted almost exclusively from operatic pieces, song cycle "Wesendonck Lieder" is the greatest rarity. Nevertheless, the cycle of five songs takes honorable place in his work and is often interpreted. It is particularly interesting that the cycle stands on the beginning of Wagner's seeking of his mature musical language. We can find all the elements of his style in these songs, on a much smaller space than we used to. The purpose of this thesis is not to describe composer's life escapades or to draw up a register of his compositions. This thesis aims for explaination of the circumstances of the cycle creation and show importance of this songs for Wagner's artistic growth. The main part is devoted to my own interpretative view of cycle, which was prepared to perform on my bachelor's concert.
