Course Description

Essentially defining the culture of the nineteenth century, the operas of the Italian Giuseppe Verdi and the German Richard Wagner continue to form the most stable theatrical repertory of the present day. The radical Wagner and the culminating Verdi both offer acute psychological insights as well as cultural criticism delivered in memorably dramatic style. In this course, the 27 operas of Verdi and the 13 of Wagner are addressed with up-to-date videos and analysis, providing an illuminating study of operatic history and the evolution of current cultural sensibilities.
