Salzburg Festival – Opera Highlights (Trailer)

DON GIOVANNI: Director Sven-Eric Bechtolf pulls off a brilliant coup with the high aesthetics of this intrigue, a masterful parody of the “everything is possible” of our time - flanked by an ensemble of exquisite vocal talents.
Special Feature: Behind the scenes for the whole opera.
Available on DVD & Blu-ray.

DIE MEISTERSINGER VON NÜRNBERG: When he wrote Le Nozze di Figaro, Mozart created an unforgettable work about love and desire, about the primal force of uncontrollable passion. Director Sven-Eric Bechtolf presents this storm of emotions to the Salzburg Festival in the very model of an English stately home of the 1920s.
Special Feature: Digital Opera Guide.
Available on DVD & Blu-ray.

LE NOZZE DI FIGARO: This staging of Richard Wagner's "Meistersinger" burst upon the Salzburg Festival like a thunderclap. Stefan Herheim's idea of staging a midsummer night's dream as a fairytale narrative is enchanting.
Available on DVD, Blu-ray & 4k Blu-ray.

Nice video excerpts, but the description appears to be utterly muddled. Maybe this could be rectified, so that the titles of two of the operas no longer are followed by the description of the other opera. Also a question, is Meistersinger really set as A Midsummers Night Dream? How could this possibly even work story-wise? Or is this even more of a muddle in this somewhat strange 'description'?
