Synopsis:
The cinema edition of Bayreuth’s “Meistersinger” reveals the polyphonic layers of music, choir, and character development. The film version translates the structure of the stage space and the social complexity of the guilds into a clear visual narrative. At the same time, the cinematic proximity allows for a glimpse into details of character relationships that often blend into the overall space of the Festspielhaus. The performance demonstrates how Wagner’s great comedy can be told in a humanistic and relatable way.
