GIUSEPPE PENNISI reports on
Mozart, Verdi and Wagner operas
from the Salzburg's summer festival
I spent about a week (19-26 August 2013) at the Salzburg Summer Festival. Here I'm reporting on three new opera productions (Don Carlo, Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg and Così fan tutte). They provide a good sample of Salzburg staple (Mozart) and of the composers (Verdi and Wagner) whose birth bicentenaries are being celebrated all over the world. In a later report, I will discuss the symphonic and chamber music I attended as well as a marionette production of Wagner's Ring; the production is scheduled for a three month tour in ten US States between October and Christmas 2013...
