His Work: How it affected the opera scene many western productions are based on Wagners operas influenced musicians, poets, playwrights, and painters

A taste of his work pointed to the beginnings of the Romantic period and beyond Wagner was a very passionate man and most of his operas were a result from this passion theme of most of his work is how desire can cause great suffering.

Samples of his Work Die Liebesverbot Rienzi

Wagner & German Nationalism Then came the Students' Association. The League of Virtue was founded. All so fantastic that no human being could grasp it. But I did. Now it is me no one grasps: I am the most German being, I am the German spirit. Question the incomparable magic of my works, compare them with the rest: and you can, for the present, say no differently than that - it is German. But what is this German? It must be something wonderful, mustn't it, for it is humanly finer than all else? - Oh heavens! It should have a soil, this German! I should be able to find my people! What a glorious people it ought to become. But to this people only could I belong. -Wagner, Richard

Wagner & German Nationalism A lot of his work was based on old German myths and stories portrayed a lot of German culture in his operas

Interesting Facts Richard has been classified as a anarchist, socialist, proto-fascist (right-winged), and nationalist. Richard had three years of formal training in music theory, but he never learned how to play a specific instrument.
