Rienzi in HD
2026-09-16 18:00 - 22:00 (America/New_York) | Dolby Screening Room, 1350 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY, 10019, United States
Rienzi, Wagner’s third opera, was once his greatest success. The story of the Roman tribune combines rise and fall, private tragedy and public vision. The original score is considered lost. This rarely performed work serves as a link between Grand Opéra and music drama, with orchestral power and emotional depth. The performance in Bayreuth is a unique opportunity to rediscover Wagner’s early triumph – where it has never been heard before.
For the third consecutive year, WSNY continues bringing Bayreuth premieres to our members as an HD cinema experience.
Tickets will be available to Members Only in August 2026.
The screening will take place over two nights (Monday 15 September and Tuesday 16 September) and shown in two parts.
