Richard Wagner

[ambernector]

I am currently listening to Gotterdammerung: Siegfrieds Funeral March. Lovely piece of music.

Any other Wagner favourites from members?

Aide-Memoire

[OperaticSarah]

Rienzi and the Ring cycle are some of my favoruites from Wagner

[bass_clef]

Schmerzen from Wesendonk ~Lieder

Love the brass

[Artanaxes]

I love the orchestral parts of the Ring..not so crazy about it as opera...Wagner was an incrediblke creative genius, and an incredibly wretched human being...

"Parsifal" and "Tristan und Isolde"
I have 1 ring and 2 other opera.
But his operas are quite long, so collecting his works needs much money.

Recently i found a new site pineclassics.com
It seems to sell old albums in low price.

Everybody whom I asked told me they were really struck by Tristan und Isolde. And even though Wagner is not among my favorite composers, so was I. So I will stop by this one.

[Tiggi]

Why zzzzzzzzzzz-worthy ??

I really like it.

Not familiar with Trilogy ? I enjoy The Rings and The Flying Dutchman by Wagner.
