Once again Richard Wagner was in financial difficulties. A comic opera that appealed to the public was intended to provide a quick remedy here: in the end, however, his »Meistersinger von Nürnberg« became far more than just comic. Set in idyllic 16th-century Nuremberg, Wagner pits young love against the rigidity of a tradition maintained by all means. Eva, the daughter of master goldsmith Pogner, has fallen in love with Walther von Stolzing. However, he can only marry her if he wins the singing competition organized by Eva's father and convinces the strict Meistersinger with his prize song. Hans Sachs recognizes the potential of the young knight and ultimately helps him – and “German art” – to succeed. Director and stage designer Nigel Lowery, in his own words, loves precisely this "German art", which does not prevent him from tackling it with his unmistakably British humour. And you, on the 150th anniversary of the premiere, freed from false pathos, to gain completely new facets.
