About this book
Correspondence of Wagner and Liszt, Volume 2, is the second volume of the English translation by Francis Hueffer (1845-1889) of the letters exchanged between Richard Wagner and Franz Liszt across roughly thirty years of close collaboration and friendship. Hueffer was the German-born music critic of The Times of London and one of the chief English-language champions of the New German School. His translation made the Wagner-Liszt correspondence available to English readers shortly after the original German edition. Volume 2 covers the later years of the friendship, including the Tannhäuser revisions, the Tristan period, the planning and first staging of the Ring at Bayreuth, and the eventual cooling of the personal relationship in the 1870s. The letters are a primary source for nineteenth-century European musical history. Free PDF download available on BDeBooks.
