Great essay! For better or for worse, I’m one of those Wagner persons too. I've attended three different productions of the Ring over the years: Haenchen / Audi, Mehta / Fura dels Baus, and Jordan / Krämer. I haven't made it to Bayreuth yet, but I never seem to tire of the music. Re irony, I also love Anna Russell’s introduction to the Ring: youtu.be/Cv7G92F2sqs.
