Wagner-Zirkel & Der Ring des Nibelungen
3 May - 9 May
Zurich
3-9 may, 2024
In May 2024, the new interpretation of Richard Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen by stage director Andreas Homoki and Maestro Gianandrea Noseda will be presented as a cycle for the very first time. Zurich is one of the birthplaces of Richard Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen. In Zurich the German composer – at the time a wanted revolutionary in exile – first developed the idea of his opera cycle, drafted the story, put pen to paper, and composed large swaths of the score. For these reasons alone, the city has a link to this epic work, which comprises four evenings and 16 hours of music. The interest in this new Ring has been overwhelming, reaching far beyond the borders of Switzerland. Therefore, the Opernhaus plans on recording its new Ring and sharing it as a live streaming with fans around the world. With your attendance at the Fundraising-Stage-Dinner as part of the «Wagner-Zirkel» you support the Opernhaus Zurich.
The two cycles are already sold out, but we have reserved a contingent of tickets exclusively for guests of the «Wagner-Zirkel». The performance of Das Rheingold will take place on the evening of the 3rd of May 2024. After the opera you are invited to the special stage dinner – in a festive atmosphere. Joining you will be the crème de la crème of the best Wagnerian singers today, together with none other than Andreas Homoki and Gianandrea Noseda themselves! Together with The Bürgenstock Collection, Mike Wehrle «Chef of the Year 2023» and Corporate Culinary Director, will provide exquisite culinary surprises.
Along with other members of the «Wagner-Zirkel», you will not only experience the first cycle of the Zurich Ring, but will also be particularly close to it. You will get to know the singers personally, visit the places where Richard Wagner lived and worked during guided tours in Zurich and the Wagner Museum in Lucerne.
Experience the first cycle of the new Zurich Ring and an exclusive supporting program together with other Wagner enthusiasts and belong to the inner circle. Welcome to the «Wagner-Zirkel»!
