  Valkyries from Wagners Die Walkre. For the purposes of the essay, ignore the text setting of the vocal line and simply

  treatment of the orchestra that these two composers employed. In what way are these compositions representative of
  Impressionism and the late-Romantic style of German music?


 
  What will be an ideal response?
