We reported previously, that the fantastic Fulham Opera will be staging its first Meistersinger in August this year. As you may know, FO has a long, and celebrated, history of Wagner productions, including a Ring cycle. But this will be the first time they will perform,
in central London, in a large concert hall. They will also have an orchestra, different from their wonderfully, piano-led early Wagner. However, FO receives no grants or funding and relies on ticket sales and help provided from artists and lovers of Wagner's work.
