Souvenirs de Munich
Chabrier’s interest in Wagner dated from 1862, when as a study exercise he copied out the score of "Tannhäuser". In early 1880 he requested time off from his ministry job to visit Munich that March with Duparc and other friends to go to a performance of "Tristan und Isolde" as it could only be seen there. The experience was a musical revelation for Chabrier. Chabrier, as assistant to Charles Lamoureux, helped in the rehearsals for the concert performances in Paris of Act I (1884) and Act II (1885) of "Tristan und Isolde".
