A cast of legendary British actors come together to tell the equally legendary story of the great composer in the mini-series Wagner. It’s released on DVD this month and thanks to the lovely folk at ViaVision we have two copies of the four disc set to give away!
Made in 1983 and featuring the last screen appearance of Richard Burton, Wagner tells the epic story of the German composer who sealed his position as one of the greatest composers ever thanks to some incredible work during the middle of the 19th century, but he was just as famous for his personal life creating a major scandal by having an affair with Liszt’s illegitimate daughter.
Featuring a towering central performance from Burton, the cast also includes Laurence Olivier, John Gielgud and Vanessa Redgrave.
Our competition runs until May 30, 2011. To be in with a chance to win one of two dvd’s of Wagner all you have to do is
