Die Walküre, Act III: "Der dich zwingt, wird dir's entziehn!"

1 in his adult life, Wagner came to revere J.S. Bach.
2 He kisses her gently on the eyelids.
3 After her initial shock.
4 Heard in isolation, Sieglinde's music.
5 But we are getting ahead.
6 Needless to say, Brünnhilde, on her return.
7 in his earliest drafts for Siegfried's Death.
8 Before the curtain rises.
9 in June 1857 Wagner abandoned.
10 Mime then imagines himself.
11 In myths and folk legends.
12 Mime then tells Siegfried about Fafner.

14 Mime is now faced with a dilemma.
15 Despite Mime's efforts.
16 It's not easy to convey.
17 Acts I and II of Siegfried.
18 On this second day of the Ring.
19 Loge enjoys one special advantage.

37 Erda descends again.
38 Hagen cuts the horn in two.
39 Then there is Hagen.
40 Towards the end of Siegfried's Rhine journey.
41 Siegfried disappears from view.
42 To modern sensibilities.
43 The music that Wagner introduces.
44 When Siegfried reaches the summit.
45 The potion does its obliterating work.
46 Then Brünnhilde steps forward.
47 When they have gone.
