Wagner and antisemitism

It is of course 200 years this week since the birth of the composer who perhaps excites more strong opinions about his life and work than any other. Professor Paul Rose, Barry Emslie and Dr Barbara Eichner discuss Wagner and antisemitism. Can one see it, hear it even, in his characters and music? And if so, does it matter? Anne McElvoy asks the questions.
