Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richard Wagner His Life and His Dramas: A Biographical Study of the Man and an Explanation, His Much musical experience has been gained since this book was published in 1901. The excursion of Par sifal into the world, begun at the Metropolitan Opera House in 1903, has extended through several lands. Familiarity with the great lyric dramas has become a common possession of music lovers. An entire genera tion of opera patrons, fed, from infancy on Wagnerian' music, has reached maturity. The ancient battle for acceptance of the art work of the future is almost forgotten. A few white-haired opera goers and the members of fashionable society, who have always been hostile to every serious art aiming at something other than their entertainment, continue to complain when the name of Wagner appears in the programs. The broad world of art, letters and music and the circles of polite culture are, as usual, deaf to their murmurings. Wagner is performed as a matter of course.

Download or read book Wagner as Man and Artist Classic Reprint written by Ernest Newman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wagner as Man and Artist It is in keeping with the whole character of the man that he Should have left us more copious documentary material concerning himself than any other artist has ever done. Publicity was as much a necessity to him as food and air. The most interesting person in the universe to him was always himself and he took good care that the world Should not suffer from any lack of know ledge oi a phenomenon which he rightly held to be unique. It would be a Sign of unwisdom to despise him for this. It has to be recognised that whatever criticism the contemporary moralist might have to pass upon this or that portion of Wagner's conduct with the outer world, he was always the soul of purity and stead fastness in the pursuit of his ideal. He believed he had come into the world to do a great and indispensable work and if he occasion ally sacrificed others to his ideal, it must be admitted that he never hesitated to sacrifice himself. Regarded purely as an artist, no man has ever kept his conscience more free from stain. And it is precisely this ever-present burning sense of the inherent greatness of his mission that accounts primarily for his constant pouring-out of himself, not only in music - his musical output.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richard Wagner, Vol. 2: His Life and Works Be that as it may, his enemies found in his previous palinodes, pretext for attacking him; and his enemies were numerous, for his arrival had caused much commotion in Bavaria, so conspicuous from the very first were his extrava gant tastes and his domineering nature. Little did it matter that he had become a Bavarian subject. The Catholics attacked him as an atheist, the autonomists as a foreigner; both attacked him as a revolutionist; people with no particular opinion were indignant at his extravagances which drained the public treasury, and the government employees were dissatisfied at seeing him receive all the surplus receipts which had hitherto gone to them. In short, all opinions and all interests found themselves one fine day leagued against him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Richard Wagner's Rheingold 1. 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 Wagner and His Works, the Story of His Life, Vol. 1: With Critical Comments As regards the plan of this book, I have endeavored to avoid what might be called the chronological-mosaic style of biography, Which consists in presenting the facts in loose connection, in the year and month they occurred in. The arrangement here adopted of present ing the various phases of Wagner's history, activity, and personality in pictures complete in themselves, without neglecting the main chronological divisions, will, I hope, commend itself to the reader. This method is facilitated by the roving life Wagner led - the constant changes of residence from Dresden to Paris, to London, Vienna, Venice, Zurich, Lucerne, etc., Which add so much to the interest of his career. The frequent subdivisions into chapters and sub-chapters make it easy for readers Who care only for the biography, to skip the other parts. But Wagner the man was so thoroughly identified with Wagner the artist, that a complete biography had to include a consideration of his works too.
