HERR WAUNER AND THE JEWS.
I Trtm (h rail Malt 9utUe.
In one respect we may liken Ilerr Richard
Wagner to Hainan. He enjoys the friendship
. f royalty, and, according to his own account,
the admiration of the populace. - Nevorthe
leM Herr Wagner is diHcontented. Mordecai
th'o daily press of Germany, France, and
JCngland will not . do obeisance, but bcowIh
pon him as a rnere "frivolous bungler" in
matters of art. Herr Wagner's aunoyance at
this is not lessened by the deiuauds of his
. astonished friends for an explanation "Tell
no the Why of so remarkable a phenomenon,"
ay the latter, among whom Madame Marie
Muchanoff, nee Countess Nesselrode, appears
conspicuous. Herr Wngncrr is ready to tell
the Why, and does so in a pamphlet addressed
to the noble lady just named.
He begins by going back to the year 1K.V)
and quoting the whole of an article which
then appeared in the Ntue Zrilxchrift fur
Musik, signed K. Freigedank. The object of
that article was to strike a blow at the "Jewi-ni-atiou"
of music by giving free expression
to certain reasons why (according to the
writer) everything Jewish is looked upon with
instinctive repugnance. Herr Freigedank
believed in a Hebraic domination which it
was desirable to overturn, and which, in his
opinion, could best bo 6verturned after this
fashion. Nobody ever set about a task of the
kind in a more thorough-going spirit, or with
a greater determination to speak plainly. At
the outset, Herr Freigedank separated the
Jew from humanity in general by as
serting that he ''possesses a God all
to himself" (we quote from an excel
lent translation of the turgid origi
nal, contributed to the Mu-iiotl World);
and described his external appearance as a
"disagreeable freak of nature," both rep til
hive and inconceivable as an object of repre
sentative art. According to the same au
thority, Jewish speech is a compound of hiss,
screech, buzz, and grnnt, which offends by
the absence of all purely human expression.
Heine thus repulsive in appearance and lan
guage, it is not surprising that "a singing
Jew absolutely drives us away directly we are
no longer attracted by the utter lmlierousnoss
of such an exhibition." Nevertheless, this
etrange being, so utterly ineapuble of artistic
manifestation, had obtaine.l "supreme sway
over public taste in the most widely sproid of
any kind of modern art namely, music."
Herr Freigedank accounted for the pheno
menon after this manner: Modern education
being a purchasable article, the educated Jew
has become a fact. Hut his education is a
mere luxury which he knows not how
to use, and which has separated him
from his own race only to isolate
him among a community he is
unable to understand. The in'luenee of this
npon music is peculiarly disastrous. "The
true poet, no matter in what department of
art he produces his poetic work, always de
rives inspiration only from the truthful and
affectionate contemplation of spontaneous
life, such as meets his gaze among the people
alone." Nowhere can the educated Jew tind
spontaneous life comprehensible to him out
side his own community. The synagogue
alone supplies a Hebrew composer with intel
ligible motives. He can at least understand
the "guttural, shrill, gabbling noise" which
stands for Jewish religious music. Hence
the synagogue tinges all his compositions,
which in every other respect are, and can only
be, cold and confused reproductions of the
most palpable features of Christian art. This
is why "Jewish musical works often produce
npon us the same effect as, for instance,
a poem by Goethe would produce if
recited in the Jewish jargon," and also
why they present a hash of all styles and
forms belonging to all masters and times.
Having thus, by means of the educated Jew,
led np to Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Herr
Freigedank proceeded to attack the great
master, then but three years dead: In the
case of one bo marvellously endowed there
was something tragic in his utter inability to
touch the heart. He could charm the ear, but
nothing more. Even "all formal power of
production" failed him when approaching
dramatic music, and there was nothing for it
but to copy a predecessor. His choice of that
predecessor was significant. Pedantry and
formalism were largo elements in Dach'a
musical language, and Bach, therefore, was
most easily imituted. For this reason alone
he became a model to educated Judaism.
Only when Mendelssohn wrote under an op
pressive sense of powerlessness did he excite
sympathy, though even then sympathy was
checked by a feeling that he had no "real,
painful, purifying consciousness" of his
incapacity. Dismissing Mendelssohn thus
Herr Freigedank turned upon
Meyerbeer yet more savagely: Meyerbeer
made it the study of his life to beguile the
weariness of his operatic audiences by weari
ness of another kind. He palmed off. his
Jewish jargon as the piquant modern expres
sion of familiar ideas, and did so with perfect
success He was simply a clover charlatan
who so well deceived others that at last he
deceived himself by believing in an artistic
reputation gained without an artist's re
sources. That men like these two Jews
should be able to dominate modern music
Herr Freigedank explained by a refereuco to
the "incapability of our epoch in musical
' art." Modern music, on his showing, has no
capacity for life. Down to the time of Bee
thoven there was not a single Jewish com
poser, because such a foreign element could
not exist in a vital organization. "It is not
till a body is evidently dead within that the
elements lying outside are able to obtain pos
session of it."
After quoting the article epitomized above,
Herr Wagner tells us, what we are not sur
prised to learn, that a storm broke about the
Lead of Franz Brendel, the editor of the None
ZiiUehrift. The storm was brief, however,
and the article soon dropped into oblivion.
We might attribute this result to contempt,
but Heir Wagner assures us it sprang from
policy. "K. Freigedank" and ltiehard Wag
ner were one, and from the moment their
identity was ascertained nothing was said
about the offending paper. The Jews deter
mined to ruin the writer by "damning" his
music How this end has been striven after
Herr Wagner tolls in one of the most extra
ordinary stories ever put before the world as
truth. We can reproduce only the gist of his
narrative.
At'oinst the Freigedank article, "the hea-
artillery of Judaism" alone thundered for
a time, but when Herr Wagner became the
object, play was made with different weapons.
For example, "a highly energetio organiza
tion" sprung up, moving in w idely ramified
circles and directed by consummate skill.
Hebrew society, in point of fact, became a
powerful machine, bent upon running down
and crushing a single man. No time was
lost in putting it to work, and for eighteen
years it has followed Herr Wagner with re
fentless purpose. In every country whither
Le betakes himself it crosses his path; alienat
ing his friends, and poisoning against bun
the springs of public opinion. Of this
plenty v sa.lMsS e iv4wvfc.
Lhevgrin was produced at Weimir in
JKMI, Stahr, Fran., and other eminent
critics Rpoke of i favorably. "But," says
Herr Wagner, "this ' happened only oa-ie in
the case of each of the several writers. Ttipy
all became dumb immediately afterwards. '
The inference, of course, is that they were
"got at" by the Hebtew organization. Simul
taneously with this, I'rofessor Bischoff, who
"plumed himself upon being a Christian, and
descended from a superintendent," attacked
Herr Wagner's art-w ritings in tho Kolnischa
Zeitu'nr, invented the nickname "Music of
the Future," and a- ribed to Herr Wagner
himself all manner of "senseless theories."
From this base it w.m easy to operate against
his compositions. The strategy adopted
appears to us nnnecessarily elaborate.
First of all, ti.e Jews fixed upon
Dr. Ilanslick, a ennese lawyer, dialec
tician, and amateur who was, moreover, an
enthusiastic Wagnerite), to be their Instru
ment. The doctor was manageable, and in
an essaHerr Wagner calls it a "libel") on
the "Musically Benu'iful" he wrote up Men
delssohn with such ingenious art as to bo
taken for a musical authority. The mistake
opened to Ilanslick a position as critic on the
staff of a powerful journal, the first use ho
made of which was to pronounce Wagner and
all his doings "ni.terly null and void. ' Con
versions such as this went on, and at length
there arose an nnti-Wagner party described
in the pamphlet bet are us as bound together
by, among other ties, the assurance of
mutual artistic impotence and nnproductive
ness But Jewish mnrhirnliun did not stop here.
It got the press of Europe actually into its
hands, and under t!i plea of good taste in art
made war upon Warner's music wherever it
appeared. In Paris the critics "obeyed as in
the best disciplined army during an engage
ment," while in London Herr Wagner was as
sailed with a "storm of insults" from writers
who calculated on the popularity of Mendels
sohn and "the peculiar character of the
English relicion, which strikes competent
judges as being based more npon the Old
than upon the New '1 estamcnt. Only m St.
Petersburg and Moscow did the press echo
public opinion ns to tho merits of Wagner's
music. Somehow revengeful Judaism over
looked those towns. It" did not, however,
neglect such other chances of doing mischief
as now and then camo in its way. The Ger
man musicians, "honestly confused and fright
ened" by Herr Wagner's writings, were per
suaded into beconrng his opponents, and
even the "wonderfu. slothf ulness ' of tho Ger
man nature was turned to advantage, as in
the case of Robert Schumann, who, finding it
troublesome to resist the unquiet Jewish
spirit, was at last m ;de captive. Nay, more,
a series of events. 1-ginning with Hauslick's
"libel," elevated Jewish musical beauty into a
dogma, and Hebrew-, and bamboozled Chris
tians discussed iuns; al it sthetics so as to re
mind Herr Wagner of "listening to the sale
of the Saviour's pimients to Jew old clothes-
men at the loot or the cross. finally, wo
are assured of the cmplote victory of Juda
ism, a victory nothing can impair. Hebrew
society has had full revenge, and this is why
Herr Wagner's music is scouted by the lead
ers of European opii.ion.
We are content !o give a mere digest of
this extraordinary pnuiphlt, because it is un
worthy of serious d'sov.ssion and refutation.
What can be said to a man no greater than
Herr Wagner, who fancies himself, for such
a cause as the pamphlet of lMO, the object
of such a persecution as that described
above; and who, afU r assuming the nnanswer
ableress of charges which were really un
answered because despised, attributes all his
subsequent failures to intrigue ' Moreover,
Herr Wagner had ro real occasion for this
last outburst. His influence on modern arl is
unmistakable; his works excite a growing
curiosity, and his movements attract a shave
of public notice larger than ever. We honesMy
regret that this is so, on account of the
seriously threatened interests of art.
