Richard Wagner’s only comic opera is an intimate love story in a monumental setting that also casts a probing look at the artistic process. The story revolves around the creation of a song, written by a brash, self-taught poet. The plot follows a very typical operatic formula: young love winning out over meddlesome old men. The referee of this entanglement is Hans Sachs, one of the most memorable characters in opera and a real-life shoemaker, composer-poet, and author of drama, fiction, and essays. One of the longest operas in the repertory, Die Meistersinger makes enormous demands on soloists, conductor, chorus, and orchestra. It has astounded musicians and critics and inspired audiences ever since its successful premiere.
