Richard Wagner made himself celebrated as a great opera composer and a reformer of the musical theater.
However he did not leave behind many significant works in the genre of symphony, overture, or symphonic poem.
The only exception is his Faust Overture (1840, second edition - 1855). Yet the scale of the orchestral episodes
of his operas, the role of the orchestra that cements the leitmotif fabric of the music and the profoundness of the
symphonic synthesizing make Wagner one of the greatest symphonists of the post-Beethoven period. The
outstanding symphonic fragments of his operas represent a great independent value and continue to live on a concert stage.
