What reading level is Requiem in Vienna book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Just another typical rehearsal under the new Court Opera Director Gustav Mahler. “The drill sergeant,” the singers called him.
They were preparing for a performance of Lohengrin and Mahler was particularly fussy about Wagner. A Jew—though he had converted to Christianity before being offered his new position—Mahler walked on Tiffany eggs whenever preparing for one of the Master of Bayreuth’s works, for Wagner was still the darling of the German nationalist press. Upset one of those critics with ...a single note out of place, a slight misstep in staging, and Mahler would bear the brunt of their “What can you expect from a Jew” level of criticism.
So, today, hectoring, hectoring. And there would be a good eight hours of it if the Herr Director’s usual routine was followed.
The object of his strident complaints this morning was Fräulein Margarethe Kaspar, a young mezzo from the back of beyond in the Austrian region of the Waldviertel, the most unlikely place for a singer to hail from.
