Description
This was inspired by the first three minutes of Wagner’s Tannhauser Overture. Tannhauser (c.1200–c.1270) was a German poet and minnesinger whose works included lyrics and love poetry, he became a legendary figure as a knight who visited Venus's grotto. Wagner’s full overture lasts eight minutes and if you would like to hear it (or at least the first three minutes that inspired this rendering), go here:

Magnificent work Stan! I have to admit I am not versed in the music of Wagner, I went to the link you posted. While i love your image, I have to admit I don't have the required gene to enjoy classical music. Your fractal has a feeling of resembling beaded glass work. The central part of the image looks like a bull or ram's head. Your color and lighting in this presentation are ideal and very well done.

Wow, if this is the beginning what must it be like at the end. A wonderful fractal with superb lighting and textures. It is wonderful that music inspires you so.

When I see these wonderful fractal, it looks like he's coming over me with his sprawling symphonic sounds. A beautiful building, both the image and the beautiful music. I see in the fractal something of a church organ. The colors are admirable precision, dear Stan! p.s. This Tannhauser-composition seems a bit like Mendelssohn's music to me.

Very impressive!! Looks like a ram's head in the centre. I see the different tones changing as does opera music in their scales. Opera is not one of my favorite music styles. However I appreciate those who enjoy it so well. Fantastic job Stan.
