/Music/Dance Richard Wagner

(The following is quoted from the Kinokuniya Web Store)

[Content Description]
This book is meant to be read as music. It contains "the most beautiful passages" that can be found in any of his music dramas. The melancholic beauty of the string instrument motif, such as in the scene of approval in "The Flying Dutchman," meets again with a large-scale orchestra amidst the eloquence that tells of his despair and the repeated, weak failures to rise from it. As long as there is a strange eeriness in the life of this truly large-scale artist, and as long as even a provocative self-bargaining flickers between the lines of "My Life," Wagner's autobiography is a record of a struggle faithful to the idea of self-realization, and as a "drama," it is the smallest of his works.
