Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg -  (The Master-Singers of Nuremberg)

Vienna

Austria

The plot tells of the young knight Walther von Stolzing, who is courting the middle-class Eva Pogner and - in order to get her father's permission to marry - has to write a prize song that conforms to the rules of the Meistersinger. The fact that the two lovers, Eva and Walther, finally get together and that the young knight succeeds with his prize song is thanks to the (historically authenticated) shoemaker and master singer Hans Sachs.

Wagner's Meistersinger are tremendously demanding, tremendously successful and unsuccessful, tremendously effective. With this opera, Wagner turns for the first time back to the “real” theater of his time. Unlike the monumental Ring project, which was intended for a utopian stage of the future, unlike the Tristan, which has proved unperformable, Wagner unfolds the new work with regard to the theater culture of his time and leads it to an acclaimed premiere. And the time when Meistersinger was composed from 1861 to 1865 led to a turning point in Wagner's existence as a whole. The amnesty of 1862 made it possible for those who had been persecuted and fled to Switzerland to return to Germany. In the same year, Wagner finally separated from his first wife Minna and married Cosima Liszt-von Bülow. In 1864, the newly crowned 18-year-old King Ludwig II of Bavaria rescued him from extreme financial distress and became his most important patron, who made the world premieres of Meistersinger and Tristan possible and forced the completed Ring sections Rheingold and Walküre — against Wagner’s will and, despite many other quarrels, also saves the Bayreuth Festival company when public donations and Wagner's own funds threaten to dry up.
