Wagner's Letters

Richard Wagner to Franz Liszt

May 21, 1859

Overview

Wagner asks Liszt to send Tausig to him if the young pianist is free, adding that his wife has even written that Tausig himself wanted to come. He says he has nothing sensible to report at the moment and simply confesses that he feels miserable, promising more news soon.

Letter

Dearest friend,

Send Tausig to me; I hear he is disengaged. My wife has even written to me that he wished to come to me. Otherwise I have nothing rational to tell you today. I feel miserable; you will soon hear more.
