Based on a German legend, Wagner wrote the libretto himself and constantly revised it with affection. An attempt to break away from the Italian opera form, it is a bold opera that depicts the conflict between divine love and sensual pleasure. Wagner himself subtitled it a ‘romantic opera’. Constantin Trinks, who has conducted all of Wagner‘s stage music, an unusual record for a young conductor, will take the podium. The production will be directed by Yona Kim, a Korean director who is actively working in Europe. Yona Kim has directed many Wagnerian operas, including <Der Ring des Nibelungen>, <Parsifal>, and <Lohengrin>.
