Wagner’s Rienzi, his first successful stage work, was inspired by the legendary fourteenth-century Roman Tribune Cola di Rienzo, who gained power through a revolt against the entrenched nobility. The opera traces the protagonist’s predictable journey from liberator to absolutism and to despotism and downfall.
