- Source: List of films about Richard Wagner
This is a list of biographical films featuring the composer Richard Wagner (1813-1883), either as a central or significant character.
The 1913 feature-length German silent film Richard Wagner was directed by Carl Froelich, with the Italian musician Giuseppe Becce in the lead role - he also created the musical score, as Wagner's music was going to be too expensive. In 2013, the German composer Bernd Schultheis adapted and prepared Becce’s piano score (all that exists) for orchestral performance - including music by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Rossini and others. Armin Brunner (Switzerland) created an adaptation in 1983, rev.2012, using selections by Beethoven, Mozart, Wagner, Liszt and Mahler. For a 2014 screening at London’s Barbican Cinema, American composer/pianist Jean Hasse premiered a score with her original music, and incorporated Wagner’s music diegetically, when 'Wagner' performs or conducts on screen.
A documentary with the same title was made in 1925.
