The Master Singers of Nuremberg: Komische Oper Berlin
About the Event
Experience Wagner from his comical side: The Komische Oper Berlin presents The Master Singers of Nuremberg in a production that received resounding praise as 'a musical triumph' (Berliner Zeitung)
Richard Wagner's fictional version of Nuremberg is a place of art and artists. The characters are in danger of ossifying in their desire to preserve traditions. Fortunately, innovation knocks at their door, and the master singers discover that their tradition is in fact perpetual renewal.
In German language, with German, English, French, and Turkish subtitles.
