Description

Richard Wagner's Ópera y drama is a seminal work that explores the fundamental principles of opera and drama. Written between 1850 and 1851, this three-part treatise represents the culmination of Wagner's theoretical and musical ideas. In Ópera y drama, Wagner presents his vision for the unity of text and melody, and critiques the conventions of contemporary opera, including the work of Richard Wagner's contemporary, Giacomo Meyerbeer. This edition features an exceptional translation by Ángel Mayo, first published in 1995, which remains a landmark study of Wagner's music and thought. This book is a crucial resource for understanding the significance and impact of Wagner's drama musical on the history of culture.
