In the course of the matinee Liszt, pointing to a parcel he had received from Wagner the day before, and which was lying on the piano, called out to me, " Voila, mon cher, une jolie bagatelle pour vous," and, taking a stout volume of music out from the brown paper, we for by that time I was surrounded by a number of curious and eager faces discovered it to be the just published score of Wagner's Walküre. " Allons done, mon cher," cried Liszt, " chantons ' Les Adieux de Wotan,' ' and he sat down at the piano, I standing next to him bending over the score, and we then and there read that Grand Finale for the first time, amidst frequent exclamations of wonder and delight on the part of the audience, and had to do parts of it over and over again. |
