Answer
Opera writing is a significant area where Weber influenced Wagner. Weber's operas, particularly "Der Freischütz," introduced a romantic and nationalistic style that greatly impacted Wagner's own operatic compositions. Wagner admired Weber's use of leitmotifs, orchestral color, and dramatic storytelling, all of which he incorporated into his operatic masterpieces, such as the renowned "Ring" cycle.
