MONUMENTAL. DEADLY LOVE.
The Wesendonck Songs, created in the period close to Tristan und Isolde and closely connected in many ways to the music drama of love, are among the most fascinating works in Wagner’s oeuvre. The poems were written by Mathilde Wesendonck: “She was, and remained, my first and only love. The years I spent with her were the brightest of my life,” Wagner once said. Franz Liszt’s Faust Symphony premiered in 1857 in Weimar, conducted by Liszt himself, and was inspired by Goethe’s Faust.
