聆赏乐剧歌剧22年全记录之五——瓦格纳其他乐剧简介(上)

Wagner wrote 13 opera works throughout his life, but he thought the first 3 immature 'student works.' so they were never performed at the Bayreuth Festival.

This article is a general introduction to the six non-Ring works, not following their premiere times but in the order of importance in the opera field and the personal preference of the author.
