Of course, his famous quote about seeing the Ring at Bayreuth was, "The best singing I have heard since the night the orphanage burned down."
But he considered the monk's entrance to be so good as to justify following performances of it around the world. Which he found himself in the position of doing in the late 1880s and early 1890s!

Oh, I did not knew that story but I also very little on MT! Yet this little piece of music make it hard for me to forget all about this man.
And it is the old question: Must I know what the man was to appreciate his work?
My answer would be there is a limit, but every one must decide when it start to hurt....
