Wagner / loriot: der ring an 1 abend“ by Wagner, Fra (2022/2022), Dirigent Heiko Mathias Förster, Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, Baden-Baden, Germany

This is the catch-up date for the event originally planned on January 30, 2021. Basically, you only need three keywords: “Loriot”, “Jan Josef Liefers” and of course “The Ring of the Nibelung”. All the perfect ingredients for an unforgettable evening with brilliant music, the right tips and one or the other intellectual aha moment. As coroner Dr. Boerne from Münster's “Tatort”, whose notorious Wagnerian enthusiasm his assistant “Alberich” has to pay for, gives the actor Loriot's Wagner homage a very personal touch. Important components of the company are the Staatskapelle Weimar, an orchestra whose history is closely linked to the Wagner circle, as well as numerous top-class Wagner singers who bring the project to the concert stage with skill and wit.
