<span>A short musical idea associated with a person, object, or thought, used by Richard Wagner in his operas, is called leitmotif. It is a musical phrase that is usually very short, and appears constantly throughout an opera or something else each time a person associated with it appears on the scene. Richard Wagner used leitmotifs quite often, and they can especially be found in his Der Ring des Nibelungen. </span>
