Wagner’s magnificent comedy in a novel production by master director Laurent Pelly.

Wagner's only comedy, Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, celebrates the transformative power of art and love, offering an intense experience in the grand opera format.

Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg centres on a group of medieval master singers vying to be the best. Yet their stringent rules and rigid structures are challenged by the fresh perspective of the youth.

This opera transcends mere entertainment. Wagner skilfully exposes one of his era's harshest critics by depicting him as a pedantic and ludicrous official. Wagner infuses the story with sensual depths; the narrative is Tristan und Isolde turned upside down – a love triangle that ends happily as the older, lovesick master singer generously steps aside for the next generation.

 

The leading role of Hans Sachs is performed by Danish bass-baritone Johan Reuter, who has also performed the part at the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Danish heroic tenor Magnus Vigilius alternates with Croatian Tomislav Mužek in the role of Walther. Both have appeared in the famous Bayreuther Festspiele. Soprano Sofie Elkjær Jensen from the Royal Danish Opera's soloist ensemble makes her debut as Eva. The production is under the direction of world-renowned French conductor Laurent Pelly, the creative force behind last season's successful production of Eugene Onegin.

Wagners storslåede komedie i ny opsætning af mesterinstruktøren Laurent Pelly

Wagner hylder kunstens og kærlighedens forvandlingskraft i sin eneste komedie, Mestersangerne i Nürnberg, der er en intens oplevelse i det helt store operaformat.

Mestersangerne i Nürnberg handler om en gruppe mestersangere i middelalderen, der konkurrerer om at være den bedste. Men deres strenge regler og faste rammer må vige for ungdommens nye blik på verden.

Den underholdende opera er ikke kun til lyst; Wagner udstiller en af sin samtids værste kritikere ved at iscenesætte ham som en pedantisk og latterlig embedsmand. Wagner giver også historien sanselige dybder; fortællingen er Tristan og Isolde vendt på vrangen - et trekantsdrama der ender lykkeligt, fordi den ældre, forelskede mestersanger generøst viger pladsen for den næste generation.

Hovedrollen som Hans Sachs synges af den danske basbaryton Johan Reuter, der også har sunget partiet på The Metropolitan Opera i New York. Den danske heltetenor Magnus Vigilius alternerer med kroatiske Tomislav Mužek i partiet som Walther. Begge har optrådt i Wagners berømte festspilhus i Bayreuth. Sopranen Sofie Elkjær Jensen fra Operaens solistensemble debuterer som Eva. Instruktør er den verdensberømte franske Laurent Pelly – manden bag succesforestillingen Eugen Onegin i sidste sæson.

The Master-Singers of Nuremberg by Wagner, Richard, søn. 16 mar. 2025, Fra (2025/2025), Dirigent Axel Kober, Jendrik Springer, Royal Danish Theatre, Copenhagen, Denmark
