The love trilogy of Richard Wagner. Zalesskaya M.

One of the modern biographers of the great German composer wrote: “None of the great people had a more complete, more painful life and at some hours more tragic than that of Richard Wagner. This wonderful musician, who created a new world with his art, drew his best inspiration in love. ” Indeed, the three main characters of Wagner's love drama create a real trilogy. This is his first wife, Minna Planer, Matilda Wesendodi - the inspirer “Tristan” - and, finally, Kozima Bulov, the second wife of the composer, who became the personification of Brungilda.

The book proposed to the attention of readers, not so much about music as about about about Love. Not a biography of Wagner, but the history of his heart. And speaking of the composer’s language, love - just like that, with a capital letter, to an excellent degree, the most exalted and beautiful - will become the leitmotif of her narrative.
