The most controversial musical figure of the 19th century, Wagner was a great literary, philosophical, and political activist whose contribution to the development of German Romanticism was unrivalled by any of his contemporaries. His life and works may be said to crown the musical achievements of German Romanticism but they arouse passions like no other composer's. His works are hated as much as they are worshipped, but no one denies their greatness. This biography of Richard Wagner is one in a new series of composer biographies, derived and adapted from the second edition of The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. These newly written biographies bring the best of the book-length pieces in The New Grove to a wider audience. Each title provides fresh new insights into the life and works of a major composer, derived from the most recent scholarship. In addition to a detailed and informative view of the subject's life and works, written by an expert in the field, each book includes comprehensive, tabular work-lists and a fully revised and updated bibliography.

Dustwrapper clean and bright. 204mm x 134mm. 401 pages including comprehensive catalogue of works, extensive bibliography and index to rear. ***'The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians is the most comprehensive and up-to-date body of musical knowledge ever gathered together. The New Grove composer biographies have been selected from the dictionary to bring the finest of the biographies to an immensely wider audience. Each has been expanded and updated for book publication and contains a comprehensive work-list, index and fully revised bibliography, in addition to the definitive view of the subject's life and works.' ***Both sides of the controversies by which musical Vienna was riven in the late decades of the 19th century are represented in this volume. On the other side, Anton Bruckner and Hugo Wolf, both devotees of Richard Wagner, one of them applying his method to symphonic writing and the other to the Lied; on the other, Johannes Brahms, a more traditional upholder of the Beethovenian symphonic tradition if at heart as romantic as any of them. There is also Antonin Dvorak, able to draw equally from both sides as well as the traditions of his own Bohemia and thus find his own integrity.' ***'Eric Sam's 'Hugo Wolf' impart[s] information as effortlessly as [it] read[s] eloquently' Bayan Northcott, Sunday Telegraph (London). (Quote and review quotes from rear of dustwrapper blurb). ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Seller Inventory # 3461
