About this audio guide

This guide to the Richard Wagner Museum in Lucerne, once the Tribschen villa where Wagner lived with Cosima, follows one Christmas morning early in their marriage, when a hired ensemble climbed the staircase before the household's birthday breakfast. You will hear about the family friend who secretly learned a new instrument for it, and the philosopher staying under the same roof that week. Stand near the staircase inside, where it happened.
