Wagner's Letters

Richard Wagner to Mathilde Wesendonck

Undated · Zurich

Overview

A brief note asking whether Mathilde will come over for the last act of Die Walküre, apparently the private rendering of the closing scene that Wagner gave in his rooms with Frau Pollert as Brünnhilde and himself as Wotan.

Letter

All in order. Will you be coming over for the last act of the Walküre?

I — hope so. —
