WAGNER, SIEGFRIED  BIOGRAPHY

(1869 - 1930)

The first son of Richard Wagner and grandson of Liszt, Siegfried Wagner, a pupil of Humperdinck after his father's death, turned from a proposed career as an architect to music after a voyage to the Far East in 1892. For the greater part of his life he was involved in the Bayreuth Festival. His compositions, including a number of operas, are not Wagnerian in subject or treatment, although he acknowledged his technical debt to his father in some respects. A number of his operas explore German fairy-story and legend, the world of the Brothers Grimm rather than that of the Nibelungen.
