Wagner on Stage uses extracts from four best-loved of Wagner’s operas: Tannhäuser, Götterdämmerung, Lohengrin and Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg. Richard Wagner certainly wrote the most dramatic operas of his time. His works are full of passion, dynamic, but also sentimentality. James L. Hosay’s arrangement offers therefore a great insight into the creative world of Wagner, whose 200th birthday is celebrated in 2013.
