A surprising title! Although Wagner remained true to his favourite genre with his arrangement of Gluck's 'Iphigenie en Aulide', but the connection to Gluck's tonal language is not immediately evident. Nevertheless, the work attracted him 'especially because of its subject'. The composition was shortened and the text of the piece completely changed. Wagner even made changes in the instrumentation, thus giving the music of Gluck a new touch.
