Wilhelm Richard Wagner was born on May 22, 1813, in Leipzig, Germany, and went on to become one of the world's most influential and controversial composers. Wagner was famous for both his complex operas, such as the four-part, 18-hour Ring Cycle, as well as for his anti-semitic writings. The Ring Cycle was ahead of its time in that it combined literature, visuals and music in a way that would anticipate the future of film. Film composers, including John Williams, were inspired by Wagner's use of leitmotifs.

  • Ebbe un'infanzia infelice, segnata dalla morte prima del padre naturale, e poi anche di tutti gli altri padri sostitutivi che la madre s'affannava a procurargli. Ciò fu la causa dell'incrinamento del rapporto tra il giovane Wagner e la madre, la quale, dovendo decidere fra il benestare dei propri amanti e la compagnia del figlio, non esitò a spedirlo sotto la tutela di oscuri parenti in Polonia. Il piccolo Riccardo, mal adattandosi al materno decreto, si ostinava dapprincipio a tornare a casa per ogni occasione: una volta aveva dimenticato il clarinetto, un'altra volta aveva finito l'inchiostro, a volte aveva perso la merenda o si era scordato di fare la pipì. Quando una volta tornò a piedi a casa dalla Polonia perché gli serviva una tazzina di zucchero per fare le frittelle, la madre deci

Unlike most other great opera composers, Wagner wrote both the scenario and libretto for his works. Wagner expressed extensive racist sentiments in his life.

A half-century after his death, the German Nazi Party appropriated Wagner's music, due in part to his simultaneous German nationlism and implied anti-Semitism.
