Leitmotifs: A Fun Game to Play with Your Fingers and Your Ears

This is no doubt at least in part due to our newly acquired Wagner Addiction and Uber Nerd-dom, but we found Metoperafamily.org’s Ring Cycle personal Leitmotif generator really fun and diverting. Answer a series of questions and you will hear an audio clip of the Ring Cycle Leitmotif that best suits you and a short description of your personality.

So if your idea of a fun Saturday night is flying around the world with your sisters collecting the bones of dead heroes or a carefree dip in the Rhine river OR if you’re the type who would set the world on fire if you think your lover doesn’t love you anymore this quiz is for you! Find your own personalized Leitmotif or at least enjoy a fun work diversion for a few minutes.

Appropriately, Elizabeth’s Leitmotif is Brunnhilde’s Love. Even more appropriately, Shawn’s Leitmotif is Sword (waka).
