Volume 65: Wagner’s Walkure

It’s a 78 RPM Sunday. On this show, we’ve had music sung in the language of my birth, English, and the language of my heritage, Italian, and the rhythmic beat of the language of Latin America, Spanish. We turn now to another language I’m going to butcher, German. So get ready for a 1934 performance of the music that just might have given Tolkien an idea in Volume 65: Wagner's Walkure.
