I like the overture to his opera "Tannhauser"

There is the old debate about who borrowed from whom, i.e. Liszt from Wagner or Wagner from Liszt. Liszt eventually became Wagner's father-in-law after Liszt's daughter Cosima left her imperious but talented musician-husband, Hans von Bulow. Von Bulow was once a student of Liszt.

Let's just make that a $5 million production and give the extra mil. to those left homeless by that last attack by Fafner.

I hope they don't stage it in their usual 'underpants' costumes and 'whore-house' sets. Last time I attended LA Opera I BOOED at the end. You wouldn't think they could ruin Mozart, but think again. Don Giovanni/ the women were dressed like Madonna. I contacted LA Opera and they said, 'People LOVE our new productions.' oh I bet.
