Wagner Die Meistersinger Von Nürnberg

Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg Sir Antonio Pappano conducts Wagner's epic comedy. Walther wants to marry Eva, but is only allowed do so if he wins the song contest held by the local guild of mastersingers. His self-taught method of song-writing breaks all the complicated rules, but fortunately the wise Hans Sachs is on hand to offer advice on both song-writing and love. Bryn Terfel sings the central role of Hans Sachs. Gwyn Hughes Jones is Walther, and Rachel Willis Sorensen is Eva. Presented by Martin Handley with commentary by Barbara Eichner.
