Der Prozess by Gottfried von Einem( )

8 editions published in 1995 in German and Undetermined and held by 297 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Jemand musste Josef K. verleumdet haben, denn ohne dass er etwas Böses getan hätte, wurde er eines Morgens verhaftet." Vergeblich versucht er herauszufinden, wessen er angeklagt wurde und wie er sich rechtfertigen könnte. Ebenso wenig greifbar sind das Gericht und das Gesetz. In einem Prozess, von dem nicht nur die Öffentlichkeit, sondern auch der Angeklagte ausgeschlossen bleibt, wird Josef K. schließlich von einer anonymen, für ihn unerreichbaren Gerichtsinstanz, die sich seinem Verständnis entzieht, zum Tod verurteilt. Eine beängstigende, klaustrophobischen Atmosphäre, ein unvorstellbarer Vorgriff auf die Zukunft, eine Vorwegnahme der kommunistischen Schauprozesse

Die Walküre by Richard Wagner( )

14 editions published between 1995 and 2005 in 3 languages and held by 106 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Wagner's powerful and wrenching tale of ill-fated love requires a cast of great singing actors, and that's just what this broadcast provides. Jon Vickers and Régine Crespin are the brother and sister who fall rapturously in love, only to be torn apart by death. The legendary Birgit Nilsson sings Brünnhilde, the Valkyrie of the title who is punished by her father (the magnificent Theo Adam as Wotan) for doing what he really wants her to do. Herbert von Karajan conducts his final Met performance

Donna Anna's father, the Commentadore, is killed in a duel by Don Giovanni, who has just tried to seduce Anna. Anna wants her fiancé, Don Ottavio, to avenge her father's death. Meanwhile, the servant, Leporello, tries to curb Giovanni's appetite for women

Götterdämmerung by Richard Wagner( )

15 editions published between 1936 and 2013 in German and held by 88 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This legendary broadcast begins deep in the mists of myth, with the Fates weaving the destiny of the world--and ends with nothing less than its cataclysmic destruction. Love, betrayal, magic potions, and nefarious plotting all combine in this epic finale of Wagner's Ring cycle. This performance features a radiant Marjorie Lawrence as Brünnhilde, who electrified the audience by actually jumping onto her horse and triumphantly riding off the stage at the end of her glorious immolation scene. Lauritz Melchior's heroic Siegfried is the standard against which all others are measured

Parsifal by Richard Wagner( Recording )

8 editions published between 1989 and 1999 in German and No Linguistic content and held by 62 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Wagner's mystical opera makes extraordinary demands on the conductor, but James Levine is renowned for the special affection and authority he brings to this transcendent work. The music shimmers and glows, evoking the legendary world of the Knights of the Holy Grail and the pure fool who brings healing power to the land. Peter Hofmann stars as the questing title hero, Jerome Hines sings the wise old man, Gurnemanz, and Mignon Dunn is the voluptuous Kundry, whose erotic temptations almost ensnare the young hero
