IT is curious to observe how much
deeper the French go in their interest
for Richard Wagner than the English.
The English flock to Bayreuth, that is
true, and they flock to Richter's
concerts and to the wretched parodies
of Wagner's operas with which the
metropolis is occasionally gratified;
but even among enthusiasts, hardly one
in a thousand knows anything about
Wagner, the man, nor of the stubborn
battle waged by him during fifty years
against a demoralised and demoralising
stage, and against the perversion of
music — or of what he calls "the
Christian Art" — into a mere
accomplishment, a mere trade and
handicraft. (Source.)
