Explanation:

Question 14

To determine who wrote the libretto (words) for Wagner's Tristan und Isolde, we analyze the options: Berlioz was a composer, Wordsworth a poet (Romantic, English), Goethe a German literary figure, Shakespeare an English playwright, and Wagner (the opera's composer) wrote its libretto.

We define the music types: Incidental music accompanies drama; absolute music has no extra - musical meaning; “mood” is not a standard term for this concept; program music (popular in the 19th century) has extra - musical associations (like a story, scene, etc.). So the correct term is program music.

Answer:

E. Wagner
