Excerpt from Richard Wagner and the Music of the Future: History and ???stetics The poetic principle, alluded to, may be divided into a lyrical and a dramatic p art; which dis tinction, translated into musical terms, will lead us to the two important forms of the music-drama and the Sony. At the same time it seems to me that only in these two kinds of development music shows a decided advance upon Beethoven's creations, a remark which, of course, is made without any derogatory tendency with regard to the instru mental works of modern composers.
