Tannhäuser und der Sängerkrieg auf Wartburg – “Tannhäuser and the Song Contest at Wartburg” – is a three-act opera with libretto and music by Richard Wagner, composed between 1843 and 1845. Its world premiere took place at the Dresden Opera House in 1845, and it was later presented at the Paris Opera in 1861, in a French version that incorporated the famous ballet of the first act. In 1875, Wagner created a third version for the Vienna Opera, with a translation of the French libretto into German, among other adaptations. This final version forms the basis of the new production by the National Theatre of São Carlos, staged by Max Hoehn with musical direction by Graeme Jenkins.
Pre-concert talk by Inês Thomas Almeida.
