WIEN/AUSTRIA: The Opera highlight of this Saturday evening was Stefan Herheim og Richard Wagners extraordinary good Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg from Salzburg Festival 2013, conducted by Daniele Gatti
.
This is a coproduction between, Teatro della Scala, Milano, Metropolitan Opera in New York, and, as far as I remember Opera de Paris, and some other places – I do hope that is the one we also will get in Oslo, when we come so far
.
What a talented staging, great details, Wonderful cast, the scenographic solutions, – Heike Scheele, , by letting all the first act be going on like at Hans Sachs writing desk, enlarged from the opening picture, and, of course in the beginning looking as the interior of the Katharina Church in Nürnberg, letting the singers appear as dolls in the enlarged interior.
– As usual we heard buing when Stefan Herheim and his brilliant staff entered stage. People are so jalouse, when a talented person and an extraordinary staff is doing a good job. BRAVO STEFAN and CO
.
It will be repeated on Mezzo: 15 / 01 – 15h30 and 19 / 01 – 15h25.
