Central to this meticulously curated anthology are CDs 4 and 5, dedicated to what is described as a "seminal Wagner recital." Here, Kaufmann's acclaimed interpretations of Wagnerian arias are brought to the fore, offering listeners a chance to revisit or discover his unique approach to these demanding roles. The inclusion of Wagner's Wesendonck-Lieder is particularly noteworthy, allowing for an exploration of the more lyrical and introspective facets of Wagner's genius, often a counterpoint to the heroic demands of his operas. Beyond the purely musical, these discs also feature Kaufmann himself discussing Wagner, providing invaluable insights into his artistic process and understanding of these monumental works.
