By God! You shall not Conductor Franz Welser-Möst be a victim!” Chorus Konzertvereinigung Director Claus Guth, renowned for his profound interpretations Wiener Staatsopernchor of opera, replaces the spoken dialogue with menacing sounds, Chorus Master Ernst Raffelsberger doubling Leonore with a deaf, signing actress.

  • Staatsoper Stuttgart Wird Temporär Zum Online-Opernhaus
    Pressemitteilung Stuttgart, 21. April 2020 Staatsoper Stuttgart wird temporär zum Online-Opernhaus Oper trotz Corona: Filmstudio auf der Bühne des Opernhauses eingerichtet; Die Staatsoper Stuttgart setzt ihr digitales On- Demand-Programm mit Unterstützung der LBBW mit Mefistofele und Satyagraha fort Die behördlichen Verordnungen zur Eindämmung der Verbreitung des Corona- Virus wurden bis zum 3. Mai 2020 verlängert. Dies bedeutet, dass mindestens bis zu diesem Datum auch keine Vorstellungen in den Spielstätten der Staatstheater Stuttgart stattfinden. Das Internet wird also, wie bereits in den vergangenen Wochen, zur zentralen Bühne für die Staatsoper Stuttgart: „Wir lassen uns von dieser misslichen Situation nicht unterkriegen – und spielen weiter, natürlich unter Berücksichtigung aller hygienischen Vorgaben und in ständigem Austausch mit dem Amtsarzt. Dass so viele Künstler*innen des Ensembles aus freien Stücken ein so vielfältiges Programm entwickeln, dass durch die Arbeit der Ton- und Videoabteilung analoge Kunst auch digital erfahrbar wird, macht mich sehr glücklich“, so Opernintendant Viktor Schoner. Die Mitarbeiter*innen der Ton- und Videoabteilung der Staatstheater Stuttgart haben in den vergangenen Wochen ein Film- und Tonstudio auf der Bühne des Opernhauses eingerichtet. So schafft die Staatsoper durch die Unterstützung ihres Digitalpartners, der LBBW, eine Infrastruktur, die es auch längerfristig ermöglicht, dem Publikum als Online-Opernhaus zugänglich zu sein: In 12 Stunden pro Woche werden aktuell Videos mit Künstler*innen der Staatsoper, des Staatsorchesters und des Staatsopernchors für das Programm „Oper trotz Corona“ produziert. Geplant sind zudem dramaturgische oder kleinere szenische Formate. Generalmusikdirektor Cornelius Meister dirigierte bereits ein Konzert mit Mitgliedern des Staatsorchesters – die Musiker*innen allesamt in jeweils einer Laube des ersten Rangs verteilt und durch Wände voneinander getrennt.

Four years ago in Hamburg she had already caught my at- tention as a great Ellen Orford in Peter Grimes. As is the custom in Europe we joined the fans wait- ing for her at the stage door and asked her whether she is thinking of doing Tosca. Yes, next year in San Francisco.

  • Spring 2008-Final
    Wagneriana Endloser Grimm! Ewiger Gram! Spring 2008 Der Traurigste bin ich von Allen! Volume 5, Number 2 —Die Walküre From the Editor ven though the much-awaited concert of the Wagner/Liszt piano transcriptions was canceled due to un- avoidable circumstances (the musicians were unable to obtain a visa), the winter and early spring months E brought several stimulating events. On January 19, Vice President Erika Reitshamer gave an audiovisual presentation on Wagner’s early opera Das Liebesverbot. This well-attended event was augmented by photocopies of extended excerpts from the libretto, with frequently amusing commentary by the presenter on Wagner’s influences and foreshadowings of his future operas. February 23 brought the excellent talk by Professor Hans Rudolf Vaget of Smith College. Professor Vaget spoke about Wagner’s English biographer Ernest Newman, whose seminal four-volume book The Life of Richard Wagner has never been surpassed in its thoroughness. In the early part of the twentieth century, the music critic Newman served as a counterbalance to his fellow countryman Houston Stewart Chamberlain, Wagner’s son-in-law and an ardent Nazi. The talk also included aspects of Thomas Mann’s fictional writings on Wagner, as well as the philoso- pher and musician Theodor Adorno and Wagner’s other son-in-law Franz Beidler. On April 19 we learned the extent of Buddhism’s influence on Wagner’s operas thanks to a lecture and book signing by Paul Schofield, author of The Redeemer Reborn: Parsifal as the Fifth Opera of Wagner’s Ring. The audience members were so interested in what Mr.
