Wagner as mental health menace Reports may seem far-fetched that a German production of Richard Wagner's Tannh�user, feted as a highlight of the 200th anniversary celebrations of his birth this month, have taken such a heavy psychological toll on members of the D�sseldorf audience that some have needed medical attention. But in his day, the German composer was held responsible for a lot more than fainting and heart palpitations: his works were viewed as a threat not only to the health of musicians and listeners but also to any society that was trying to uphold order.

It is often easier and cheaper to experience great orchestras online and while older music lovers might shudder at the idea, research shows that most Americans under the age of 30 actually prefer it. But Cleveland, Ohio, boasts one of the world's top orchestras and rather than accept the empty seats at Severance Hall, the musicians decided to seek out new audiences in an unlikely venue.
