Who was Richard Wagner's legendary second wife Cosima? Was she a submissive executor of the composer's will or a consistent architect of the Wagner myth?
The evening is hosted by Julijus Grickevičius, a great storyteller and one of the best experts on Wagner's works and biography.
CLOSER TO MUSIC are evenings of encountering the music in Lithuanian language, hosted by interesting "guides" - musicologists, musicians, music lovers - admirers of a particular genre, composer, instrument, artist or country's musical culture. They talk about the particularities of this music and demonstrate the music live and/or from records which have been pre-selected by the speaker.
