Wagner and Brecht are seemingly opposed in their approach to drama, music, and visual representation, the former believing in the integration of these different elements in the "Gesamtkunstwerk", the other in their separation. However, they share common ground in their sophisticated use of leitmotivic networks, a bridging device for Wagner who builds onto its verbal and semantic foundation a unique and complex musical language. Both use the device to explain and evaluate a dramatic action as it unfolds, i.e. as a major form of perspectival commentary. Brown discusses the paradox that Wagner's theory can shed light on Brecht's dramatic practice, since Brecht's own thematical concerns focus almost exclusively on the gestic and disjunctive perspectives identified with epic theatre.

The Gesamtkunstwerk ('total work of art'), once a key concept in Wagner studies, has become problematic. This book sheds light on this conundrum by first tracing the development of the concept in the 19th century through selected examples, some of which include combinations of different art forms. It then focuses on the culmination of the Gesamtkunstwerk in Wagner's theories and in the practice of his late music dramas, of which Der Ring des Nibelungen is the most complete representation. Finally, the book contrasts the view of the Ring as a fusion of dramatic text and music with the 20th century trend towards Deconstruction in Wagnerian productions and the importance of Régie. Against this trend a case is made here for a fresh critical approach and a reconsideration of the nature and basis for the fundamental unity which has hitherto been widely perceived in Wagner's Ring. Approaches through Leitmotiv alone are no longer acceptable. However, in conjunction with another principle, Moment, which Wagner insisted on combining with Motive, these can be ingeniously 'staged' and steered to dramatic ends by means of musical dynamics and expressive devices such as accumulation. Analysis of the two Erda scenes demonstrates how this complex combination of resources acts as a powerful means of fusion of the musical and dramatic elements in the Ring and confirms its status as a Gesamtkunstwerk.

"Intemperate, insightful, argumentative, outrageous, brilliant: Joe Kerman's Opera as Drama continues to provoke and enlighten. There is really nothing quite like it."—Philip Gossett "Opera as Drama is, in my reading, the best book on opera in English. It's splendidly intelligent and opinionated."—Paul Robinson, author of Opera & Ideas

This book analyzes the lifelong impact of Beethoven's music on Wagner and its importance for his conception of music drama. Kropfinger charts and scrutinizes Wagner's early responses to the composer and considers his experience as a conductor of Beethoven's music. A discussion of the Romantic "Beethoven image" leads to a careful study of Wagner's aesthetic writings, including his "programmatic explanations," the text "Concerning Franz Liszt's symphonic poems," and his Beethoven centenary essay. The penultimate chapter addresses Wagner's theory and practice of music drama, which he came to regard as the preordained successor to the Beethoven symphony. By analyzing special terms--such as "Leitmotiv"--Wagner's structural view of musical drama comes to the fore; it is a view that deepens not only our understanding of musical drama as a "hybrid" genre of art but also of purely musical structure and forms that Wagner sought to outdo.

Wilhelm Richard Wagner (1813-1883) est un compositeur allemand. Il est considere comme l'un des plus grand compositeurs d'operas du XIXe siecle. Genie hors normes d'une rare universalite, Wagner doit son importance dans l'histoire de la musique occidentale a ses operas, en particulier L'Anneau du Nibelung, festival scenique en un prologue et trois journees dont il ecrivit lui-meme les poemes et dont la conception bouscula deliberement les habitudes de l'epoque pour aller, selon ses propres termes, vers un "art total" spectacle complet, melodie continue et emploi du leitmotiv. Ses conceptions artistiques avant-gardistes ont eu une influence determinante dans l'evolution de la musique des le milieu de sa vie. Les operas de Wagner constituent son principal testament. On peut schematiquement les separer en trois groupes: Les Fees, La Defense d'Aimer et Rienzi sont les operas de jeunesse. Ces oeuvres n'ont rien de particulierement remarquable et sont rarement jouees de nos jours. Avec Le Vaisseau Fant?'me, puis Tannhauser et Lohengrin, Wagner ecrit ses premiers grands operas romantiques. La periode de la maturite debute avec la composition de Tristan et Isolde, souvent considere comme son chef-d'oeuvre.
