The mountain walk of the four men is the other - they brace themselves against the weather and the mountain wall. Overpowering nature, on the other hand, has something as Mephistophelian as it is witch-like. In a fight - or rather a game - in front of the small, slender person, she shows herself in all the exuberant wildness and beauty that characterize opera as a genre. "
