"The Wagner Experience"; Love him or Hate him, Richard Wagner has
had an
enormous influence on modern drama, music, and, of course,
history. This
website has been created by Professor John Weinstock of the
University of
Texas at Austin. I took his "Ring of the Nibelung" course and was
really happy
to see that the Professor had built a site dedicated to his
course. A
recommended site!
