This biography delves into the life of Richard Wagner, a German composer, theatre director, conductor, and polemicist, who is famous for his operas or "music dramas." Wagner was a unique opera composer who wrote both the libretto and music for his works, unlike most of his contemporaries. He began his career composing romantic works, but he became a revolutionary force in the world of opera by creating the Gesamtkunstwerk, or "total work of art," which aimed to merge the poetic, visual, musical, and dramatic arts with music subservient to drama. Wagner's most complete realization of this idea was the four-opera cycle 'Der Ring des Nibelungen.' This book provides an in-depth look at the life and accomplishments of one of the most important and innovative figures in the world of music.
