He was born at Leip zig, May 22, 1813; he died at Venice, February 13, 1883. His whole life was a struggle, for his musi cal ideas were unlike any that had gone before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wagner IT is probably safe to say that there has lived no more discussed a musician than Richard Wagner. For this reason I have purposely omitted any attempt at a Biblio graphy. The number of books, articles, and pamphlets that have been written about him and his works is legion, and anything like a representative list would have swollen this volume to unreasonable proportions. Amongst the more important biographical workers there should, however, be mentioned the names of Glasenapp, Tappert, Gasperini, Dannreuther (in Grove's Dictionary of Music and Chamberlain, while Wag nerian students owe a debt of gratitude to the excellent translated work which has from time to time been accomplished by Ashton Ellis, H. And F. Corder, and Alfred Forman. For similar reasons I was compelled to abandon the idea of supplying the various motif} in musical notation.

In writing the text, which was based upon the well-known novel by bulwer-lytton, Wagner himself says: I was simply thinking of an opera-text which would enable me to display the principal forms of Grand Opera, ' such as introductions, finales, choruses, arias, duets, trios, etc., with all possible splendour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richard Wagner, the Man and His Work Professor William Lyon Phelps of Yale has recently written: "The book that I have most enjoyed reading in 1913 is Richard Wagner's autobiography, - 'The Story of My Life.' I have enjoyed reading it, because it shows what tremendous difficulties Wagner encountered, what suffering he had to pass through, and yet how in the end genius overcame everything. It is also an inspiring work to read because it shows how a man can remain true to an ideal, and can actually prefer Failure in the pursuit of the ideal to success accompanied with compromise." Now this "Story of My Life" is the book of all others that I would advise those to read who would know Wagner thoroughly, the authorized translation of which is published in America by Dodd, Mead & Co., New York, 1911. This is a wonderful book in the intimacy and frankness of its revelations. It is fascinating reading. It shows a great soul with many weaknesses and failing: s, but it reveals also what an intellectual vigor and a steadfast purpose can accomplish in this world.

Richard Wagner. - 0n May 13, 1813, in a mod est home at the old university town of Leipzig, Saxony, Richard Wilhelm Wagner was born. In the palace of the French Bourbons, at Venice, Italy, on February 13, 1883, he closed his weary eyes. A life of incessant struggle was then ended; a life, however, crowned by success sublime. On a new field - new at least to some extent - the Teutonic race under his leadership proved its supremacy. Ignored at first, attacked later on, he triumphantly overcame all obstacles, which fate, malice, and stupidity threw in his way. His great capacity for work, his untiring energy, his remarkable individuality, gained for him the admiration of the civilized world, the love of his friends, and the respect of his enemies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richard Wagner and the Music of the Future: History and AEsthetics The poetic principle, alluded to, may be divided into a lyrical and a dramatic part; which dis tinction, translated into musical terms, will lead us to the two important forms of the music-drama and the Song. At the same time it seems to me that only in these two kinds of development music shows a decided advance upon Beethoven's creations, a remark which, of course, is made without any derogatory tendency with regard to the instru mental works of modern composers. In many cases these have displayed individual beauties of the highest order without, however, adding essen tially new features to the symphonic form, as established by Beethoven.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parsifal: A Festival Play by Richard Wagner; A Study While steering clear, however, of the musical controversy, and holding aloof alike from those who applaud him as a courageous reformer and those who condemn him as a reckless innovator, a lover of beauty may be permitted to render his tribute of homage to the man who has at least attempted, whether successfully or not, to marshal and combine all the arts in the interest of one supreme artistic endeavour, having for its object to present, with a measure of excellence approaching perfection, a drama altogether noble and ennobling. Our music, ' says Emerson, our poetry, our language itself, are not satisfactions, but suggestions' but we cannot be too grateful to the artist whose aim.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of the Wagner Opera Naturally a scholar and a dreamer, Rienzi would probably never have seen the necessity of such a thing, or ventured to attempt it, had he not seen his own little brother wantonly slain during one of the usual frays between the Orsini and Colonna factions. The murderer, a scion of the Colonna family, considered the mat ter as so trivial that he never even condescended to excuse himself, or to offer any redress to the injured parties, thus filling Rienzi's heart with a bitter hatred against all the patrician race. Secretly and in silence the young enthusiast matured his revolutionary plans, winning many adherents by his irresistible eloquence, and patiently bided his time until a suitable oppor tunity occurred to rally his partisans, openly, defy the all-powerful barons, and restore the old freedom and prosperity to Rome.
