Conductor: Sergiu Celibidache & Münchner Philharmoniker Apart from the operas, Wagner composed a small number of pieces; this stems from his reluctance to conceive music which didn't belong to the sacredness of the drama, fundamental expression of his thought. The "Siegfried Idyll" is a symphonic poem for chamber orchestra, composed by Richard Wagner (1813-1883) as a birthday present to his second wife, Cosima, after the birth of their son Siegfried in 1869. It was first performed on Christmas morning, 25 December 1870, by a small ensemble on the stairs of their villa at Tribschen. Wagner's opera "Siegfried", which was premiered in 1876, incorporates music from the Idyll. It was once thought that the Idyll borrowed musical ideas intended for the opera, but it is now known that the opposite is the case: Wagner adapted melodic material from an unfinished chamber piece in the Idyll and later incorporated it into the love scene between Siegfried and Brunhilde in the opera.

Wilhelm Richard Wagner Sir Georg Solti Vienna Philharmonic Wagner wrote this tender composition for chamber orchestra as a birthday gift to his second wife, Cosima, who was the daughter of the famous Hungarian composer Franz Liszt. It was composed around the time when he was nearing the completion of the score for his music drama Siegfried—one of the four operas in his operatic cycle The Ring—and after the birth of their first son together, Siegfried. The premier of Siegfried Idyll took place on the staircase of Tribschen—their home in Switzerland—on the morning of Christmas Eve in 1870, which was Cosima's 33rd birthday. Wagner on Cosima, his new son, and his life: "She has borne to me a wonderfully beautiful and vigorous boy, whom I could boldly call `Siegfried'; he is now growing, together with my work, and gives me a new long life which has at last attained a meaning." Cosima on the premier of Siegfried Idyll : "As I awoke, my ear caught a sound, which swelled fuller and fuller; no longer could I imagine myself to be dreaming: music was sounding, and such music! When it died away, Richard came into my room with the children and offered me the score of the symphonic birthday poem. I was in tears, but so were all the rest of the household. Richard had arranged his orchestra on the staircase, and thus was our Tribschen consecrated forever."

The artist was born in Bremen Germany on December 24, 1952. Freelance artist since 1980. Several artshows of his work in and outside his homecountry. Siegfried Zademack's surrealistic visionary paintings make recipients and reviewers wonder. The arrangement of his pictorial thoughts immensely exceeds a realistic reproduction. His pictures allow us to slip in metaphysical dimensions, between humorous irony and the unfathomable deepness of our souls.
