The perfect introduction to the Master. Over a century after his
death, Richard Wagner's music dramas stand at the centre of the
culture of classical music. He was a walking contradiction:
aggressive, flirtatious, disciplined, capricious, heroic, visionary
and poisonously anti-Semitic. His ten great mature masterpieces
constitute an unmatched body of work, created against a backdrop of
poverty, revolution, violent controversy, critical contempt and
hysterical hero-worship. In this book, Simon Callow plunges the
reader headlong into Wagner's world, examining the intellectual and
artistic climate of this composer like no other who ever lived,
creator of perhaps the most sublime and most troubling body of work
in the history of music.
