About this ebook

There is a world of music, beautiful, thrilling, powerful and romantic music, that one composer wrote to express the theme of Redemption Through Love! He wrote this music for "sacred music dramas" he believed could transform the world through art. His stories come from legends and mythology and folk tales, and he meant them to resonate deep within the subconscious mind, long before modern psychology knew this could be done. And they do. His music has inspired observations like "Some people are made to feel by his music that they are in touch with the depths of their own personality for the first time: a feeling of wholeness, yet unboundedness; compared to a mystical or religious experience."

Is this what you think of when you think of Wagnerian opera? Or do you think of heavy Germanic arias sung by heavy Germanic divas in horned helmets? Do you think of being surrounded by stuffy, pedantic Wagner cultists ready to look down their noses at you and test your worthiness to enter the temple, with stuffy conversations about the most arcane and obscure performances about which hoi polloi like you surely must be woefully ignorant?

Ah, dear music lover, this author believes what you should associate with Wagner is that world of beautiful, thrilling, powerful and romantic music that will thrill you, uplift you, caress you, transform you, and leave you in a state of sheer delight! You just need to have an irreverent attitude about it all! And this book will summon that irreverent attitude from the depths of your music-loving soul.

There is everything one could want in this book in terms of Wagner knowledge and deep insights into the deep themes underlying his music dramas. Presented irreverently.
