Richard Wagner called Die Walküre the first evening of the Ring of the Nibelung he called Das Rheingold the prologue or Vorabend Musically and dramatically we are introduced to a radically new and different world when the opening bars of Die Walküre resound A fully developed orchestral palette of Leitmotivs paints a wild storm scene and the curtain rises on a modest dwelling a fully human scene that has nothing to do with the gods dwarves and nymphs of Das Rheingold At the same time however the way Die Walküre portrays radical beginnings reveals some telling reminiscences of the unfolding of Das Rheingold Die Walküre is exciting and deeply feeling drama
