Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site

Interesting that at the same day I had dissuasion with a friend in mine (big Wagner fan) trying to formalize for him why I do not “get” Wagner. The best that I was able to come up was that in Wagner the prolog foreplay and rarity of the orgasms is something that distracts me. I mean if we get for instance the best of the “pop” operas, by for instance Puccini or Verdi, then they have a certain listening rhythm. The pressure builds up, builds up, builds up and then a culmination come up. Any act has a number of those rollercoasters that make listening a not only a wile ride across own sensations but also….kind of amusement and enjoyment.

With Wagner is different: he very-very seldom make music, plot or acting to orgasm but rather he very slowly and very lengthy cooks the listener, the question is: for what purpose. I do not deny many musical genius moments of Wagner and I did experience in few occasions the “moments of forth”.  Still, it was a few minutes of 4 hours labor and not directly inspirable.  Do admit that do not know Wagner to like him but what I do know from him make him to respect him but do not like him. If someone is wiling to “help” me then I would be gratefully. Hey, even bought a few years back a book, qithe a nice book: "How do not hate Wagner”…. it did not help….
