    The piece is meant to depict 9 warrior maidens flying into battle on winged horses. The vocals are their battle cries.

      "maidens flying into battle" Ironic. The composer is the same one who wrote the 'Bridal Chorus',,,,,,,,,,,,,,,eh maybe NOT so ironic.

      *Sorry, but I can't help myself.*
      *It's actually about 8 demigoddesses (female equivalent to berserkers/cheerleaders) finding a place for their horses to rest and graze, and a discussion about how the bloodlust of the fallen warriors they carry on those horses for Valhalla is making their steeds "frisky".*
      *Brunhilde is not present and arrives a bit later with Sieglinde, Siegmund's sister and wife. Then Wotan - and then the fun begins....*
      *The horses have no wings.*
      *The "battlecries" are nothing of the sort. They are calls to the other Valkyrie, essentially - "HERE I AM! WHERE ARE YOU, SISTERS?"*
      *You're welcome.*

      It was from a series of recordings capturing all four of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen made by Decca records between 1958-1965, conducted by Georg Solti, sung by Swedish soprano Birgit Nilsson. She did multiple versions. Search her name with "Hojotoho."
