W-Chronicles: Wagner, Wahn und die Welt
A selection of contributions from the Richard Wagner Societies, structured by theme and published by the RWVI. We're starting with the Ring of the Nibelung and W-perspectives.
For over 150 years, Wagner enthusiasts and their Richard Wagner Societies have existed. For over 150 years, there has been a lot of discussion, analysis, and writing about Richard Wagner’s music and various aspects of it. Many local RW-Societies have published very interesting contributions, sometimes on a website, sometimes in their own magazines.

With W-Chronicles, we want to organize a selection of articles by topic in magazines:

Our first special (W-Chronicles 1) will be about the 150 years of the Ring of the Nibelung, joining the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the work.

Before the year ends, another special will follow (W-Chronicles 2), which will collect the perspectives of the new generation of Wagner fans on the Bayreuth Festival: W-Perspectives 150+

Interested in joining?

1. For W-Chronicles 1 (150 years of the Ring of the Nibelung):
