"Reynolds shows that the stylistic advances made by Richard Wagner and Robert Schumann in 1845-46 stemmed from a deepened understanding of Beethoven's techniques and strategies in the Ninth Symphony, particularly the use of counterpoint involving contrary motion. The trail of influences that Reynolds explores extends back to the music of Bach and ahead to Tristan and Isolde, as well as to Brahms's First Symphony."--Provided by publisher.

How to create a genuine synthesis of the component elements in a musical drama: this was the central problem of Wagner's life as a theorist and as a creative artist. This is the first book which focuses attention exclusively on this problem. It extracts from Wagner's voluminous and far-ranging writings the pertinent theories on synthesis, analyzes them, and shows how the creative works reflect the successive stages of these theories. The author does not attempt to establish priority of influence for either theory or practice, but shows that they are necessarily complementary and reciprocal aspects of Wagner's creative activity, and that a precise analysis of the theory will cast new light on the nature of the musical dramas. Wagner thought consistently in terms of a union of poetry, music, and drama, but the manner in which he described and justified their union, as well as the way in which he combined them in his works, varied considerably in the successive periods of his life. In particular, his acceptance of Schopenhauer's esthetics of music in 1854, shortly after he had worked out a complete theory of art synthesis in Opera and Drama, his major essay, was an important turning point. For Schopenhauer's views were incompatible with that theory, and the result was a series of adjustments by Wagner in both theory and practice, in which he attempted to reconcile his ideas with those of Schopenhauer. The author's careful analysis of these successive stages--his discussion of the poetry, drama, and music, not as separate elements, but only in their relation to their function as part of a synthesis--is an absolutely new contribution to Wagner research. The author presents the theory and the works, particularly from The Rhinegold on, in an important new perspective. --Jacket

Opera has been around ever since the late 16th century, and it is still going strong in the sense that operas are performed around the world at present, and known by infinitely more persons than just those who attend performances. On the other hand, it has enjoyed periods in the past when more operas were produced to greater acclaim. Those periods inevitably have pride of place in this Historical Dictionary of Opera, as do exceptional singers, and others who combine to fashion the opera, whether or not they appear on stage. But this volume looks even further afield, considering the cities which were and still are opera centers, literary works which were turned into librettos, and types of pieces and genres. While some of the former can be found on the web or in other sources, most of the latter cannot and it is impossible to have the whole picture without them. Indeed, this book has an amazingly broad scope. The dictionary section, with about 340 entries, covers the topics mentioned above but obviously focuses most on composers, not just the likes of Mozart, Verdi and Wagner, but others who are scarcely remembered but made notable contributions. Of course, there are the divas, but others singers as well, and some of the most familiar operas, Don Giovanni, Tosca and more. Technical terms also abound, and reference to different genres, from antimasque to zarzuela. Since opera has been around so long, the chronology is rather lengthy, since it has a lot of ground to cover, and the introduction sets the scene for the rest. This book should not be an end but rather a beginning, so it has a substantial bibliography for readers seeking more specific or specialized works. It is an excellent access point for readers interested in opera.
