'The ideal interpreter of the Ring ... a fascinating and valuable study ... absorbing and convincing' Sunday Times The Ring of the Nibelung is one of the greatest works of art created in modern times. Roger Scruton's brilliant and passionate exploration of the drama, music, symbolism and philosophy of Wagner's masterpiece - with its themes of love, death, sacrifice and freedom - shows how, ultimately, it expresses the truth about the human condition. 'Highly original and penetrating ... tremendous' Tim Blanning, Literary Review 'A rich, historical account ... After reading this book, only the most unadventurous reader would turn down the chance to see Wagner's masterpiece' Economist 'A brilliant gallop through the master's religious, musical and philosophical contexts' Sue Prideaux, Spectator 'Scruton is one of the finest philosopher-musicians since Schopenhauer' Jonathan Gaisman, Standpoint

Book Description
Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) was a German poet and author of prose. His "Reisebilder" (Travel Sketches), "Die Harzeise" (Journey through the Harz Mountains), and the volume of collected poems "Buch der Lieder" (Book of Songs) are classics of German literature. --- His general interest in legends and folk tales is evident in his "Memoirs of Herr von Schnabelewopski", in which he tells, inter alia, the story of the Flying Dutchman that became the source for an opera by Richard Wagner. --- Many of his poems have been set to music by Franz Schubert, Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Johannes Brahms, and other composers.

Book Description
'A Landmark in Musical History' is John Luke Rose's title for the introduction to this extraordinary piece of theatre. It belongs to the German tradition of mystical writing, and a short note on the poem itself by Martin Swales and Timothy McFarland elucidates some of Wagner's literary techniques. Anthony Negus, who assisted Reginald Goodall on the WNO production of Tristan und Isolde, has contributed a penetrating analysis of the musical structure of the opera, while Patrick Carnegy assesses the remarkable solutions to staging an opera which some argue is best experienced with your back to the performers.
