Who conducted the world premiere of Tannhäuser? What was the name of the husband of Richard Wagner's muse Mathilde Wesendonck? Did Goethe and Mozart ever meet? If you know the answers to these questions off the top of your head - then let's go to the next edition of Georg Nigl's opera quiz on October 21 at 19:00 at NEST!
We are still looking for candidates who would like to take part in our opera quiz on stage. Please contact us at dramaturgie@wiener-staatsoper.at!
And if not, then you are still in the right place at the event. Because the opera quiz with Georg Nigl is not a tough exchange of blows, but a humorous and witty evening about the premieres at the Vienna State Opera and opera in general. The quiz candidates are made up of singers who are currently performing at the State Opera, brave guests from the audience and colleagues from the State Opera. Three teams compete against each other and answer a sophisticated and entertaining set of questions. The two previous editions have shown: There is a lot of knowledge, but also laughter! Nigl is not only a well-known singer, he is also an extremely entertaining and charming quizmaster.
The fact that you also learn a lot about composers, works and opera during the event is a practical and reliable side effect! The theme in October: Fidelio - and Ludwig van Beethoven.
