The Wagner Compendium: A Guide to Wagner's Life and Music

Rate this book
The grandiose operas of Richard Wagner - Tannhauser, the Ring Cycle and Tristan und Isolde - still affect audiences with their deeply symbolic dramatic expressions of love, fate and religious fervor. Yet, because of the association of his music with National Socialism and his own anti-Semitism, Wagner himself remains deeply controversial.
