Tannhäuser by Richard Wagner
10/21(Fri)19:3010/23(Sun)14:30
Tannhaüser is one of Richard Wagner’s master pieces with its overture frequently performed as a separate piece in concerts now. Based on a medieval legend, the story grapples with theme of lust versus love and centers on the struggle of a minnesinger named Tannhaüser who tries to redeem himself and his love for his mortal lover Elisabeth after his encounter with Venus. Banished by his own people and no hope for absolution, the only way for salvation is to wait for the Pope’s crosier to flower. Wagner revised Tannhaüser many times and the Paris version is recognized as the most well balanced and sophisticated revision. This compact reproduction of NTT’s 2021 Paris version will be back to stage on the audience’s demand.
