Czech Travels to Richard Wagner
Fránek, Michal ; Kopecký, J.
The study explores the phenomenon of Czech travels to famous German composer Richard Wagner and to the places associated with his cult (Munich, Bayreuth, Zurich, etc.). It focuses on the Wagnerian journeys – accomplished and not – of Czech composers (Bedřich Smetana, Antonín Dvořák, Zdeněk Fibich, Josef Bohuslav Foerster), performers (Ema Destinnová, Karel Burian, etc.), music critics (Otakar Hostinský, V. V. Zelený), painters (Jaroslav Čermák) and writers (Julius Zeyer, Jaroslav Maria, Teréza Nováková), tracing their different motivations.
