Richard Wagner - Romantic Opera in Three Elevations - Music and Poetry by Richard Wagner!

The Dutchman is a cursed, a driven, an outsider. Richard Wagner got to know the figure of this homeless man through Heinrich Heine, who, however, told the romantic story with his typical irony. Wagner, on the other hand, was not interested in Heine's frame story, which put the Dutch material at a distance. Wagner immersed himself in the story of the mysterious sailor and created his first opera about the man's search for the woman who saved him.

Wagner's opera, written in 1841 and premiered in Dresden in 1843, is, after the preceding RIENZI, which stylistically followed the Grand Opéra, a turning to the tradition of German romantic opera by Weber or Marschner. Despite this orientation towards the zeitgeist, the work anticipates Wagner's further development as a music dramatist. And for the first time, Wagner's life theme of redemption through love in death is at the centre of his work.

Info: Deutsche Oper Berlin

On November 7, 1912, the Deutsches Opernhaus was inaugurated with FIDELIO and, in the following decades, served as a stage especially for Puccini's and Wagner's works. The house has remained faithful to the democratic ideal of a citizen opera after its destruction in World War II: Fritz Bornemann's new building, opened in 1961, is intended as a framework for a modern music theatre, which can be experienced from all seats as a total work of art.

Great every time! Absolutely recommendable! Get2card is recognized without any problems! And with just one card purchase, the card has already paid for itself!!!

Smooth buying of tickets with friendly staff. Grandiose places and a wonderful bizarre performance (Salome)!
What I didn't know until then: On the day of the performance there must be a valid get2card. Not (only) on the day of purchase.
(I had a sample get2card for 3 months at the first attempt to buy the cards.)

Reibungsloses Kaufen der Tickets bei freundlichem Personal. Grandiose Plätze und eine wunderbar bizarre Vorstellung (Salome)!
Was ich bis dahin nicht wusste: Am Tag der Vorstellung muss es eine gültige get2card geben. Nicht (nur) am Tag des Kaufes.
(Ich hatte eine Probe get2card für 3 Monate beim ersten Versuch die Karten zu kaufen.)
