Hi!

I would like to share with you a recent harmonic analysis of "Brangäne's warning" from Wagner's Tristan und Isolde.
The passage is very harmonically sophisticated and it captures the oneiric quality of the scene.

Do you know any other such passages (oneiric, dreamy, etc.) from the operatic repertoire?
