Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg

About four and a half hours of pure playing time - a little preparation for Wagner's "Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg" is really not a bad idea. In his introductory lecture, dramaturge Zsolt Horpácsy will share his concentrated expert knowledge on this production, which will celebrate its premiere in the opera house on November 6, 2022 in the staging by Johannes Erath. In addition to an overview of the plot, in this video you will learn, among other things, which parallels the director Johannes Erath draws between Wagner's »Meistersinger« and Mendelssohn's »A Midsummer Night's Dream«. Have fun watching!

The competition takes place on St. John's Day. Everyone knows exactly how to sing properly. Everyone knows better.

Die Meistersinger was supposed to be a satyr play . However, the comedy »from a light hand« developed into a score that is one of the longest and most complex in opera literature and repeatedly causes heated debates. In contrast to the templates, which emanated from an aristocratic worldview, Wagner composed Die Meistersinger , a bourgeois opera and parody of medieval minnesingers.

Around midsummer, in the annual singing competition, goldsmith Veit Pogner offers his daughter Eva's hand as a prize. The shoemaker Hans Sachs, the town clerk Sixtus Beckmesser and a cheeky newcomer, the noble Walther von Stolzing, fight for her. Everyone does it with their own means: Walther has to overcome a number of hurdles before he can marry Eva and be accepted into the circle of masters. Between Sachs and Beckmesser it only seems to be about who is allowed to marry the bride. Two fundamentally different ways of life collide here. But the two complement each other in their different views. They are inseparable: one cannot exist without the other.

The emergence of the Meistersinger leads through two decades, across Europe. Wagner wrote the first drafts in Bohemia, the prose drafts came about in Vienna and he continued to shape his characters in a Parisian hotel room. So some of Wagner's German masters were born abroad. The composer had in mind an interplay of comedy and tragedy. But in the dreamy summer night, the game is suddenly dominated by madness and ends in a senseless mass brawl.

A "strange" St. John's Day.
