Richard Wagner

    May 22, 1813 – February 13, 1883

    Wilhelm Richard Wagner was a German composer, conductor, theatre director, and essayist, primarily known for his operas, which he later termed 'music dramas.' Setting himself apart from most other great opera composers, Wagner penned both the scenarios and librettos for his works. This singular control over every facet of his creations infused his output with a deeply personal and unified artistic vision.
