Richard Wagner (1813-1883) is famous as a composer of opera, but what receives less attention is his interest in Jesus Christ -- and how his views of Jesus (especially his death) relate to various strands of Christian thought and how they find expression in his music. In this video, Professor Richard Bell - a fan of Wagner - explores these themes.
