"Alle Empfindungen stiegen bis zu einer niegekannten Höhe in ihm. Er durchlebte ein unendlich buntes Leben; starb und kam wieder, liebte bis zur höchsten Leidenschaft, und war dann wieder auf ewig von seiner Geliebten getrennt."

    People should know that Wagner's greatest contribution to music still limited to film soundtracks today. Without Wagner or Strauss there would be no composers like Howard Shore. Other than that, I really never detect any clues that Wagner belongs in the great line of avant-garde. Wagner's musical theories are childish, stemming from the unthinking, instinctual anarchy nature of his origins.
    I always thinking that, he would have been better off as a sentimentalistic/panganistic poet. He's pretty close to what Oscar Wilde is to me. They're both caricature-like, they're both possessing a certain unhealthy yearning for "aristocratic" life.

    I never really understand why things like "leitmotifs" are so important. I really think it's vulgar. But it's appropriate that this kind of stuff is being used by Howard Shore to score a movie series. I have to get into a fairly secular state to "appreciate" Wagner, Wilde and TLotRs movie series.

    But sadly the truth is this. You would never be an aristocratic guy if you overly possessing it. Wagner's compositions were never aristocratic. I totally appreciate him in a dramatic way, which is how I see Wilde.

    In fact, Goethe, Wagner and Mozart, their real lives remain consistent in their aristocratic qualities - if we really don't think that poets like Schiller are somehow aristocratic. So apart from some of Mann's really irrational and exaggerated writings on Wagner, there are still clues to these details, these iconic funny and embarrassing moments of these maestros.
    If someone didn't know this: Mozart and scatology
    It is scarcely only the agonizing poets who are in opposition to the (monastic?) philosophers, but also the aristocrats of this grandiose liberality, and the devout pedagogues. For the last one - devout pedagogues - Steiner is a good example of this kind.
