 Wagner - Parsifal Help
Author: Bigno16

Our orchestra is playing Parsifal for the next concert and in the prelude, there is a strange section that is written in 6/4, yet is conducted in 4, not 6. The clarinets and flutes have alternating triplets and eighths that must somehow fit into the conducted 4 pattern, despite the meter being in 6. I just had an awfully difficult time trying to do so in rehearsal tonight and am fairly confused about it. Does anyone who has played this before have any suggestions? Could anyone offer advice or exact location of where the tactus (beats) should be written in?
