	Ariadne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ariadne, in Greek mythology, was daughter of King Minos of Crete and his queen, Pasiphae.
		With Dionysus, she was the mother of Oenopion, the personification of wine, and was set in the heavens as the constellation Corona.
		Her name is merely an epithet, for she was originally the "Mistress of the Labyrinth", both a prison with the dreaded Minotaur at its centre and a winding dance-ground.

	Anton Chekhov : Ariadne
		Ariadne's voice, her walk, her hat, even her footprints on the sandy bank where she used to angle for gudgeon, filled me with delight and a passionate hunger for life.
		Ariadne went on living with her brother, the spiritualist: things went from bad to worse, so that she had nothing to buy hats and dresses with, and had to resort to all sorts of tricks and dodges to conceal her poverty.
		Ariadne despised the practical side of life; all this was no concern of hers, and when flinging away thousands of francs to satisfy her mad desires I groaned like an old tree, she would be singing "Addio bella Napoli" with a light heart.

		Whilst Ariadne is given long-breathed, soaring phrases, Zerbinetta has some of the most difficult music ever written for a high coloratura, culminating in a showpiece aria, Grossmächtige Prinzessin, filled with trills and cadenzas and reaching up to a high F sharp.

		He tries to explain to Zerbinetta that Ariadne prefers death to the embraces of any man other that her beloved, and proving unsuccessful in this, he indulges in a duet with Zerbinetta in which he comes perilously close to declaring that he loves her.
		The four comedians make another attempt to cheer up the melancholy Ariadne, but their dancing and singing have not the slightest effect, even when they are joined by the sprightly Zerbinetta.
		Ariadne is not the first to be abandoned by her lover, and will not be the last.

		Ariadne auf Naxos: Ich gruesse dich, du Bote aller Boten!
		ARIADNE AUF NAXOS has to have one of the cleverest plots and some of the most sophisticated music in opera thanks to the ability and creativity of composer Richard Strauss and librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthall.
		I would listen to this recording for the sake of Norman's plush, statuesque Ariadne, but nothing else is really up to scratch, and when you consider the considdrable weakness of the Bacchus and the dull conducting, this set isn't competitive with classic readings from Karajan and bohm, or modern ones from Levine and Sinopoli.
