His voice is not ideal for Tristan (this incredibly taxing role requires a voice of DARK beauty, in addition to a ringing top, neither of which belongs to Windgassen), but what he does with what he has is another matter.

 Les Apaches - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Their most distinguished member, Ravel, suggested that they adopt the first melody of the Borodin 2nd Symphony as their theme, an idea to which they all agreed.
The group met each Saturday, most often at the home of Sordes; alternately, they would meet at that of Klingsor.
The group had rallied around Claude Debussy's opera Pelleas et Melisande in a particularly controversial effort.

Itt ismerte meg Tristan Klingsort, aki nemcsak tehetséges költő volt, de a festészettel és a zenével is közeli kapcsolatban állott.
Klingsor 1903-ban adta ki Seherezádé című verseskötetét, amelyből Ravel három költeményt választott ki megzenésítésre: „Ázsia”, „A varázsfuvola” és „A közömbös” című verseket.
Gyermekkora óta rajongott a mesés, a rejtelmes Keletért, Tristan Klingsor Ázsia című költeménye valószínűleg azért ragadta meg a képzeletét, mivel valóságos útikalauzként vezet végig a hatalmas földrész különféle országain: Szírián, Perzsián, Indián, Kínán és a titokzatos, mesebeli szigetvilágon.

 Tristan Klingsor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Among his works were Humoresques (1921) and various studies on art; but it was his large group of poems called Shéhérazade, published in the early 1900s, which was of special significance for Ravel, when he selected three of them for his song cycle Shéhérazade in 1903.
When Ravel composed his Trois chansons in 1914/15, he dedicated the first song, Nicolette, to Klingsor.
Tristan Klingsor described his long acquaintance with Ravel, particularly during the years of the Apaches, in an essay called L'Époque Ravel, published in 1939 in Maurice Ravel par quelques-uns de ses familiers (Colette, [1939], pp.125-139).

The new EMI Tristan Und Isolde, composed by Wagner, may well be one of the last starry CD opera recordings - and marks a high watermark in Plácido Domingo's unparalleled career.
According to Stemme, Tristan is perhaps not quite as demanding for the soprano as for the tenor; yet great Isoldes are still thin on the ground, with perhaps the greatest having been her compatriot Birgit Nilsson.
He sneaks in the first "Tristan" chord in the Ouverture, for instance, instead of hitting us in the stomach with it, as is usual practice.

 Oregon Symphony: Scheherazade   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Ravel was drawn to Klingsor’s free verses, which flowed naturally, like conversation, when spoken.
The poems are stunning evocations of Asia colored by fantasy and invention (Klingsor, like most of the other members of Les Apaches, had no direct experience of Asia or Arabia).
It begins, “Asia, ancient, marvelous country of fairy tales/where fantasy sleeps like an empress/In her forest full of mystery.” While highly romanticized and exotic, some of Klingsor’s imagery is clearly dated and borders on offensive cliché (“fl faces with shining teeth,” “portly mandarins,” “avaricious merchants with shifty glances”).

 Shéhérazade, Three Songs on Poems of Tristan Klingsor
That piece was hissed by the audience, trounced by the critics, and withdrawn by the composer, who never performed it again and did not allow the score to be published in his lifetime.
He recycleded some of its material, however, in a different kind of Shéhérazade which proved to be far more successful, a sumptuous song-cycle with texts by Tristan Klingsor.
For Ravel, setting a poem meant transforming it into expressive recitative, to exalt the inflections of speech to the state of song, to exalt all the possibilities of the word, but not to subjugate it.

Scheherazade reared her alluring head in another way in 1903, when Ravel was 28 and running with a band of Parisian artistic young turks who called themselves Les Apaches.
Another Apache, Arthur Leclere, a writer and painter who went by the very Wagnerian non de plume Tristan Klingsor, published a book of Orient-oriented poems titled Shéhérazade that year.
Klingsor thought that Ravel chose to set “Asia,” the first poem of the suite, only out of a “love of difficulty,” since the undramatic, descriptive nature of the poem “made it appear quite unsuitable for his purpose.” Klingsor didn’t appreciate what a juicy morsel “Asia” would be for Ravel’s impressionist taste buds.

 MSO program notes
In 1903, Tristan Kingsor (the Wagnerian pen-name of poet Léon Leclère) published a collection of 100 poems under the title Shéhérazade, a reference to the famous story-teller of the Arabian Nights.
Klingsor's exotic and sometimes erotic verses perfectly suited the times.
Klingsor later wrote: "For Ravel, setting a poem meant transforming it into expressive recitative, to exalt the inflections of speech into the state of song, to exalt all the possibilities of the word, but not to subjugate it.

The name was adopted by a group of young artists of avant-garde tendencies who enjoyed seeing themselves as members of a put-upon, enlightened minority, sworn enemies of the stuffy bourgeoisie.
The poet Tristan Klingsor, the conductor Désiré-Émile Inghelbrecht, the pianist Viñes, the composers Maurice Delage, Manuel de Falla, Florent Schmitt, and of course Ravel himself, and the critics Calvocoressi and Émile Vuillermoz were the most famous members of the group.
Around 1904, Debussy, then at work on La Mer and about to begin his first set of Images for piano, told Viñes that his aim was to write music so free in form as to seem improvised.

Ravel fikk ham til å deklamere dem og gjorde da notater om språkmelodien, og den er blitt liggende til grunn for den musikalske utformingen.

Nor is Sheherazade simply the storyteller: she is, equally, the story itself, something that Rimsky Korsakov's music, however implicitly, suggests.
Aouni's visual conception of Sheherazade is rather reminiscent of Maurice Ravel's three lyrical poems bearing the same name and inspired by Tristan Klingsor's text -- written for voice and orchestra.
Evoking the Orient, from Damascus to Persia and from Turkey to China, Aouni's dance, like Klingsor's verse, is a fantastical medley of movement and colour -- adapted, however, not to Ravel's but to Rimsky Korsakov's more popular musical composition.

I was also distracted by a constant anxiety that some of the dancers may trip on the dangling ends of their sarongs.
But on the whole it was a laudable effort which captured the Oriental mystique sought by librettist Tristan Klingsor and composer Maurice Ravel.
What won the audience’s wholehearted applause was Judimar Monfils’s exquisite interpretation of Ramli Ibrahim’s lyrical choreography in Undine — a watery tale of an overly adventurous mermaid who falls in tragic love with a two-timing landlubber.

While these pictures figure as an important component in Boudin’s total oeuvre, he eventually stopped painting scenes of fashionable men and women on the beach in the late 1860s and devoted himself “entirely with studies of the sky, of boats and herds of animals.” (Jean-Aubry, pg.
65) Boudin’s ability to capture the subtleties of the sky was an ability that other artists could not match (Tristan Klingsor, “Un Précurseur de l’Impressionnisme: Eugène Boudin,” La Nouvelle Revue, 1891, vol.
