The Love Trilogy of Richard Wagner

One of the modern biographers of the great German composer wrote: «No one among the great figures had a love life more complete, more painful, and at certain hours more tragic than Richard Wagner. This wonderful musician, who created a... new world through his art, drew his best inspirations from love.» And indeed, the three main heroines of Wagner's love drama create a true trilogy. They are his first wife Minna Planer, Mathilde Wesendonck — the inspiration for «Tristan» — and finally, Cosima Bühler, the composer's second wife, who became the embodiment of Brünnhilde.
The book offered for readers' attention is not so much about music as it is about Love. It is not a biography of Wagner, but the story of his heart. And speaking in the composer's language, Love — precisely so, with a capital letter, in the superlative, the most elevated and beautiful — will become the leitmotif of its narrative.
