This annual event provides the unique opportunity for our members to learn some of the events and developments in this year’s Bayreuth Festival.  We will offer an illustrated discussion of the new production of Tristan und Isolde starring Andreas Schager and Camilla Nylund; receive a report from a Society member on his first visit to the Festival; hear from the three young artists whom the Society sponsored as part of the Festival’s Scholarship Program; and welcome a special guest, American bass Jordan Shanahan, who sang the role of Klingsor in the Jay Scheib “augmented reality” production of Parsifal.
