   Richard Wagner. 18131883. The greatest composer of German opera, Richard Wagnerwas the youngest of nine children of Friedrich and Johanna Wagner.  
   http://www.island-of-freedom.com/WAGNER.HTM
   
   Extractions: The greatest composer of German opera, Richard Wagner was the youngest of nine children of Friedrich and Johanna Wagner. His father, a police registrar, died 6 months after Wagner was born, and his mother was remarried the following year to Ludwig Geyer, an actor and portrait painter, who moved the family to Dresden. Geyer died in 1821, and in 1827 the family returned to Leipzig. Wagner was attracted to the theater at an early age. His first creative effort was a spoken tragedy, Leubald and Adelaide (1828), which was heavily influenced by Shakespeare and Goethe. He decided at once, however, that he must also write music, and he proceeded to teach himself the rudiments of composition, supplementing them with the study of scores. His formal training was briefabout 6 months in 1831-32 with the Leipzig cantor C. T. Weinlig. During the 1830s, Wagner held a series of conducting posts with small theatrical companies, and he wrote two operas, Die Feen (The Fairies, 1834) and

3. Wagnermania: Biografía
   Richard Wagner, nacido el 22 de mayo de 1813 en Leipzig, recibi³ muy pronto las influencias art­sticas de su familia.  
   http://www.wagnermania.com/Biografia/
   
   Extractions: Con Tannhäuser, estrenada en Dresde en 1845, avanzaba en la utilización de los temas conductores, ahora más extensos. Revive el mundo legendario medieval de los caballeros Minnesinger alemanes, equivalentes a los trovadores provenzales. Pero aquí el drama toma un aspecto religioso enfrentándose, por un lado, el amor "carnal" que simboliza la diosa Venus y, por otro, el amor espiritual de Elisabeth. En Lohengrin utiliza el nuevo método dramático musical en forma intensiva. En la obertura, por ejemplo, escuchamos el "tema del misterio" y el del santo Grial; este último reaparece en la misma forma tras casi cuatro horas de ópera, cuando Lohengrin se identifica como un caballero del Santo Grial.

    http://www.hnh.com/composer/wagner.htm
    
    Extractions: Wagner was a remarkable innovator both in harmony and in the structure of his work, creating his own version of the Gesamtkunstwerk, dramatic compositions in which the arts were brought together into a single unity. As a man he was prepared to sacrifice his family and friends in the cause of his own music and his overt anti-semitism has attracted unwelcome attention to ideas that are remote from his real work as a musician. In the later part of his career Wagner enjoyed the support of King Ludwig II of Bavaria and was finally able to establish his own theatre and festival at the Bavarian town of Bayreuth. He developed the use of the Leitmotiv (leading motif) as a principle of musical unity, his dramatic musical structure depending on the interweaving of melodies or fragments of melody associated with characters, incidents or ideas in the drama. His Prelude to the love tragedy Tristan und Isolde led to a new world of harmony. Recommended Recordings

    http://users.utu.fi/hansalmi/wagner.spml
    
    Extractions: Richard Wagner (1813-1883) who regarded himself as "the most German of men", "the German spirit" is not only known because of his 13 operas and numerous other compositions but also because of his inevitable influence on our understanding of German culture and history. He has been classified as an anarchist and a socialist and, simultaneously, as a proto-fascist and nationalist, as a vegetarian and an antisemite... In fact, his name has appeared in connection to almost all major trends in German history of the 19th and 20th centuries. Besides his activity as a composer and a librettist Wagner wrote an astonishing number of books and articles (this link includes some complete works as hypertext), in fact about 230 titles. The literary spectrum ranges from theories of opera to political programs. You may catch some of his political ideas from the quotations I have chosen. You may also read what contemporaries and later scholars have written about him In addition to these activities Wagner wrote about 10.000 letters Richard Wagner is undoubtedly one of the leading figures of the 19th century. Already at his time, he was a source of debate and controversy. When Wagner died in 1883, over 10.000 books and articles were written about him. The amount of research has multiplied after his death. I have included a list of

18. Wagner, Richard - Zenith Of German Romanticism
    Includes a brief biography of wagner, listing his major works and giving insights into his personality.  
    http://classicalmus.hispeed.com/articles/wagner.html
    
    Extractions: Although he was undoubtedly the most controversial musical figure of the Nineteenth Century, Richard Wagner was a great literary, philosophical and political activist whose contributions to the development of German Romanticism were unrivaled by any of his contemporaries. His life and works may be said to crown the musical achievements of German Romanticism, but they are simultaneously celebrated and condemned like the works of no other composer in music history. His Music Dramas are hated as much as they are worshiped in the world today, but even among those who damn Wagner as a human being, his genius as a composer is not denied. But in more recent days, with the widespread renaissance of tonality in serious music, many familiar sounds of Wagnerian origins are evident in new compositions heard at symphony concerts and on Hollywood sound tracks. It was not Wagner's style of vocal composition in his Music Dramas that has remained so influential, but his orchestral language of chromatic tension and release, his brilliant use of instrumental tone color, and his flair for dramatic effects balanced with his long, sensually serene harmonic progressions that have become a mainstay in the arsenal of modern composers. Wagner attended school in Dresden and then Leipzig. At age fifteen, he wrote a play, and at sixteen he composed his first music: two piano sonatas and a string quartet. In 1831 he attended Leipzig University, and he also studied piano and composition with the Cantor of St. Thomas Choir School, Christian Theodor Weinlig, but unlike many other prominent composers, he never became proficient on this or any other instrument. Wagner's formal training in music was brief, and he was largely a self-taught musician. He composed a symphony, and it was successfully performed in 1832. In 1833 he was employed as the chorus master at the Würzburg theater where he wrote the text and music of his first opera
