«Decoding Wagner: An Invitation to His World of Music Drama» is Thomas May's musical essay, published by Amadeus Press in paperback (220 pages).
Thomas May dismantles the clichés about Wagner and serves as a guide to his «artwork of the future»: he places his major operas in their biographical context and shows how drama, music and philosophy intertwine. The two CDs trace his evolution as a composer and reveal the expressive richness of his music.
English edition, published in December 2004 and volume no. 1 of the Unlocking the Masters series. Includes two CDs from BMG Classics.
Aimed at classical music and opera enthusiasts who want a guide to Wagner with CD examples.
