Wagner: The genius and his legend!, Nov 15 2010
By Hiram Gomez Pardo - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: My Life, Vol. 2 (Facsimile Reprint Edition) (Paperback)
The verbosity was undoubtedly, one of the most emblematic features of this true renovator of the Opera. A genius who established indeed "a before and an after" in what concerns the Opera. Initially regarded as simple entertainment vehicle, Wagner conferred it of solemn grandiosity and sublime expression. His indomitable and well known efforts for making of the opera the closest representation of his beloved ideal; the concretion of the Total Art regarded as fusion of the Greek Theatre, imbued of mythological influences acquired for him the undisputed supremacy in this sense, being Bayreuth the supreme place where year after years, the people go to admire and enjoy every one of his reminded Operas.His profound baggage of impressions about facts, considerations, thoughtful speeches, reflexive quotations and formidable memory have permitted us to dive into the very core of his intellect. This book must be read over and over without compelling rush, according the distinguished enchant and showy refinement.
Without restrictions or hindrances I cordially invite you to acquire this extraordinary diary, plenty of witness and notable erudition all the way through.
Don't miss it by any reason.

Enigmatique Mr.Wagner, Dec 14 2011
By Serge Ledan - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: My Life, Vol. 2 (Facsimile Reprint Edition) (Paperback)
This autobiography is a MUST for all Wagner's admirers and even for all curious inqirers. The only thing to be desired is that the autobiography stops at 1864 and leaves us curious about the years of maturity (post 1864)when I suspect he marries Cosima Liszt, after a probable passing of Mina and also problably meets Nietzsche... Not a word about Nietzsche as yet, in these 2 volumes.... For all these reasons, a third volume of this autobiography is sorely needed... I wonder if there is one..! And if not, this biography should be considered unfinished... perhaps..??
Listmania!
