I had wished that these sketches wou reveal something
Of course I realize that these drawings dont explain anything... My bad...
still - will try and do a similar sketch, a timeline of the flow of our version of Meistersinger....
this is what i remember:
this follows that
29 April
Leni Riefenstahl used the theme from Act 1 Prelude as part of the score of Triumph of The will
--and there are some images that resonate with the Wach Auf Chorus in Act 3.
are there some ideas here
The part where Meistersinger music is used is not so overtly Nazi---
rather its just a series of Idyllic shots discovering Nurembrg.
At the end of the sequence rows of Tents for those gathered in Nuremberg to see the Nazi Rally.
