Description:The Collected Writings of Franz Liszt: Dramaturgical Leaves: Richard Wagner completes the second half of Liszt s writings about stage works, its composers, and music drama. In this volume, Liszt focuses on the works of his most controversial devotee and son-in-law, Richard Wagner, whose music dramas Liszt championed as conductor during his tenure in Weimar. Here, we see Liszt prove his skill and expertise as a music critic, as well. He offers a critical analysis of the aesthetic and musical principles that underlie Wagner s operas, Tannhauser, Lohengrin, and The Flying Dutchman, including a thorough discussion of Wagner s Leitmotif system of composition. Additionally, his findings are substantiated with a plethora of music examples, which will satisfy those who wanted greater musical substance from his writings. He also foretells the magnitude of Wagner s influence on prosperity in his pamphlet-length essay, The Rhine s Gold. Finally, the editor and translator of this volume, Janita Hall-Swadley, provides a unique perspective on these same principles, which is based on Wagner s own mysterious diagram of The Philosopher s Stone that was supposed to be included in the original 1863 edition of the composer s important writing, Opera and Drama, but never made it to publication."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
