Book Synopsis Wagner (Classic Reprint) by : Ernest Newman
Download or read book Wagner (Classic Reprint) written by Ernest Newman and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wagner In accordance with the general aim of the series, this book aims in the first place at being useful; that is, it is intended rather as a guide and a help to the plain man than a full critical study of Wagner. And since we have so little opera in this country, and the plain man hears most of his Wagner in the concert-room, an attempt has been made to render what he hears there more comprehensible to him. In telling the stories of the operas, for example, an eye has been had to the concert-goer who is likely to hear no more than detached fragments from them, which fragments, however, only tell half their story to him if he is ignorant of the opera as a whole. In selecting the musical quotations the same purpose has been kept in view. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Meistersingers, Wagner Before proceeding to outline the story of Wagner's great humorous Opera, it seems expedient to give the reader some account of the real Mastersingers the artisan poets of Germany, who had a certain affinity with, and yet were entirely different from, the troubadours of France. It is not so long since the craft became extinct. Twelve old Meistersingers held regular meetings in a little inn at Ulm as late as 1830. By 1839 the number had dwindled to four; and the quartet solemnly decided that the society of Mastersingers be disbanded for ever.6 the real meistersingers It is said that the last of these interesting survivals died in 1876.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Wagner Brief exposition of them could serve any useful purpose. Some readers may feel astonished that while I have passed over a portion of Wagner's ablest and most interesting work in this way, I have discussed at fair length many of his treatises that are of far less intrinsic value. The reason is that these latter, though not finally educational or illuminative in themselves, are factors that cannot be overlooked in the attempt at a veracious diagnosis of Wagner; while such writings as the purely musical ones merely illustrate points in his mental structure that are dealt with in other connec tions. My object has been to study Wagner as a psychological and aesthetic phenomenon; to try to answer the questions ln virtue of what constitution of brain was he so great a musician? And How did his peculiarities of mental structure affect his views of the other arts and of life in general?

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wagnerian Drama: An Attempt to Inspire a Better Appreciation of Wagner After this I shall shortly consider the works of the first period and show that they are dramas, but that their appreciation as such is impeded, partly through their Operatic form, partly through certain deviations in the application of the various means of expression. For the works of the period of fully conscious creation in a new form Of art a more detailed consideration will be necessary but here also I shall concentrate my attention only on the dramatic poet, and shall attempt to prove that Wagner with his new art-works was able and' forced to wander in new paths, and that he.

In early youth he produced works for the concert room and the stage, some of which met with a fair degree of success (various overtures, a symphony in c major, As he developed, and his destination for the lyric stage became apparent, he felt the theatre, as it then existed, to be insufficient for his purposes, and so, almost in spite of himself, he became a critic and theorist.
