Los Maestros Cantores de Núremberg: Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg Wagner, Richard

Esta producción supone un acontecimiento musical tras 22 años desde su última representación en el Teatro Real; a la vez que supone todo un tour de force para artistas, equipos técnicos y personal, debido a su exigencia en todos los niveles. Pablo Heras-casado estará bajo la batuta de esta producción, tras todos los Wagners que ya lleva dirigidos en el Real y junto con las voces de grandes voces como Gerald Finley y Jongmin Park.  

Esta monumental ópera trata temas como la tradición versus la innovación, la lucha por la libertad creativa y la importancia del amor verdadero y la honestidad. También tiene una dimensión política, ya que se ambienta en una época en la que la unidad nacional alemana era un tema candente y se utilizaba la cultura y la música para promoverla.  

La partitura de la única comedia de Wagner –con permiso de La prohibición de amar– ocupa más de 800 páginas –frente a las menos de 600 de Parsifal– y su papel protagonista –el zapatero Hans Sachs– tiene un texto equivalente al de los tres Wotan de El anillo del nibelungo juntos. La clave que explica estas cifras radica en su estilo, en el predominio de los tempi rápidos y en el carácter conversacional de su escritura vocal, que la aproximan –quizá más que cualquiera de los restantes dramas musicales wagnerianos– al ideal de teatro cantado preconizado por su autor.

Mayúscula en todos los sentidos, Los maestros cantores es también algo así como el reverso burgués de Tannhäuser y la traducción a escala humana de las pasiones de Tristán e Isolda. También es una nueva y original muestra del interés de su autor por la cultura medieval, invocada ahora como reflexión sobre la función del arte como tradición y como fuerza transformadora. Subirá al escenario a través de la mirada de Laurent Pelly –La fille du régiment, Viva la mamma–, quien mide en esta producción, por primera vez frente Wagner, su proverbial don para la comedia.

This production is a musical event 22 years after its last performance at the Teatro Real; at the same time it is a tour de force for artists, technical teams and staff, due to its demands at all levels. Pablo Heras-Casado will be at the helm of this production, after all the Wagners he has already conducted at the Teatro Real and together with the voices of great voices such as Gerald Finley and Jongmin Park.  

This monumental opera deals with themes such as tradition versus innovation, the struggle for creative freedom and the importance of true love and honesty. It also has a political dimension, as it is set at a time when German national unity was a burning issue and culture and music were used to promote it.

The score of the only comedy by Wagner - except Das Liebesverbot/The Ban on Love– occupies more than 800 pages (also consider the 600 pages of Parsifal), and its protagonist, the cobbler Hans Sachs has a part which is equivalent to the three Wotan roles of the Ring all together. The key to explain these numbers resides in its style, in the predominance of quick tempos and the conversational aspect of the vocal writing which comes close - more, perhaps than any of the other Wagnerian musical dramas -   to the ideal of singing theatre advocated by the composer.  

Superior in every way, Die Meistersinger is also something like the bourgeois antipode of Tannhäuser and the passions of Tristan und Isolde explained on a human scale. It is also a new and original indication of the composer’s interest in medieval culture, called on here, as a reflection on the function of art as tradition and as a transforming force. It comes to the stage through the eyes of Laurent Pelly –La fille du régiment, Viva la mamma–, who measures his proverbial gift for comedy in what will be his first Wagner production.
