    Summary

    Have you ever wondered what happened between Siegmund’s famous declaration, “Bride and sister you are to your brother, so blossom, Walsung blood!” at the end of Act I of Richard Wagner’s The Valkyrie, and his elopement with his twin-sister Sieglinde in Act II? Wagner is less than forthcoming in giving us the details, so I’ll tell you exactly what occurred in that fateful night. Brace yourself for a night of passion in which the twin-children Siegmund and Sieglinde of Walse, a.k.a. Wotan, King and Father of the gods, make divine but sinful love with each other and thereby beget the great hero Siegfried.
