Father Benito sleeps with the poor widow with whom he has helped establish a cantina and solicits donations for a hospital from the drug lords who exploit the people the hospital is intended to serve.
Wolf's activities as a critic began to pick up; he was merciless in his criticism of the inferior works he saw taking over the musical atmosphere of the time (Anton Rubinstein in particular is one composer he considered odious) and fervent in his support of the genius of Liszt, Schubert, and Chopin.
Wolf himself saw the merit of these compositions immediately, raving to friends that they were the best things he had yet composed (it was with the aid and urging of several of the more influential of them that the works were initially published).
Wolf's greatest musical influence was Richard Wagner, with whom in an encounter after Wolf first came to the Vienna Conservatory encouraged the young composer to persist at composing and attempt larger-scale works, cementing Wolf's desire to emulate his musical idol.
