  Song: Mirror of the World

  Thirteen programmes that explore classic song, poetry set to music, as a prism for understanding culture and history

  Presented by Thomas Hampson

  (7) After Wagner

  This programme illuminates a cultural world living in the shadow of Richard Wagner, and throws light on how a generation of composers responded to him. We also explore the influence of broader currents, from anti-Semitism to feminism to industrialisation, and conclude in the late 1890s with riveting songs by Arnold Schoenberg and Hugo Wolf (WFMT)
