As you correctly point out, there are a lot of reasons to dislike Wagner the man, and a lot of things I wish I had never learned about him. The same could be said about many other famous people. But I had the good fortune to hear some of his music before learning about that other stuff, and I heard nothing but goodness in it. I have no interest in becoming a nazi, but I would never turn down a chance to play Wagner's music.
