The initial leitmotif in "Der Ring des Nibelungen" is much more than a simple arpeggio. It is conceived to start the history of the world as the origin of the sound: with the concatenation of harmonics by physic principles, generating then the major chord #WednesdayWagner Image
In this way, we can hear just this leitmotiv for 4 minutes, symbolising not only the movement of the river, but also the own origin of the Tonal Functional System, which is losing its preponderance along these 14h until being consumed by fire like the Valhall #WednesdayWagner
