- Summary:
- After Nikolaus Lehnhoff's great success with Parsifal, Lohengrin and Tristan und Isolde, this is his highly acclaimed Tannhäuser coproduced with De Nederlandse Opera and Festspielhaus Baden-Baden. Nikolaus Lehnhoff's production is based on the Paris version by Richard Wagner with an extended Venusberg scene and a ballet very surprisingly choreographed by Amir Hosseinpour and Jonathan Lunn. The minimalist staging and Raimund Bauer's ingenious sets make this a Tannhäuser for our time. The cast as always with Lehnhoff has nothing to match these days.An extra feature entitled "Tannhäuser - The Revolutionary" includes interviews with stage director, conductor and cast as well as backstage material.
