Sunday 26 February 2023: DVD & in conversation with Maestro Anthony Negus & Carmen Jakobi

Our next event is: In conversation with Maestro Anthony Negus [Conductor & Musical Director for Melbourne Opera's Ring Cycle] & his wife Carmen Jakobi [chief German language coach for the Ring]
It will be held at 2.00pm on Sunday 26 February at the Goethe Institut, Event Hall (upstairs), 90 Ocean Street (cnr Jersey Road), Woollahra.
The event will be held live at the Goethe Institut, with Maestro Anthony Negus and Carmen Jakobi on video from Melbourne. This will be an illuminating insight into the massive effort that has gone into preparing young musicians for Melbourne Opera's Ring Cycle in Bendigo in 2023. It will be interactive with questions from the floor.
This will be preceded at 12.00 noon by the DVD - Global Wagner - From Bayreuth to the World - a film by Axel Brüggemann. The film is a revealing feature-length study of life with Wagner’s legacy from one Bayreuth Festival to the next, and we travel the world to meet devoted Wagnerians and those most intimately involved in commenting on and producing his work today.
