Patti Defies Mad Bavarian King in Munich Audition
Patti, famed singer, refused Ludwig II's requests to perform in Munich until a vast sum and strict dress code pushed her to travel there. On stage in near darkness, she delivered La Traviata as the king watched in a moonlit box, then vanished upon the royal command. The next day Mme Fischer returned with jewels and the king's thanks, lamenting his own frenzied mood and wavering between Wagner and Italian music.
