[edit] Information

Extended version of a documentary in which Stephen Fry explores his passion for controversial composer Richard Wagner. Can he salvage the music he loves from its dark association with Hitler's Nazi regime? His journey takes him to Germany, Switzerland and Russia as he pieces together the story of the composer's career. Along the way he meets Wagner's descendants, plays his piano, eavesdrops on rehearsals for the Bayreuth Festival and meets a cellist who played in the prisoners' orchestra at Auschwitz.
