The Prizelied (the Prize Song) from Die Meistesinger von Nurenberg by Wagner
The first verse throws the music colour-masses into an adumbration of the structure and gives direction to the flowing forces. Brilliantly luminous colour radiations and colour masses surround the figure, filling in the area between and under the petals. The triple figure glows brilliantly within this cloud of darker colours, all shot with flashes of gold.
