Die Meistersinger at the Met A lavish, flawed Wagner outing
The Met mounts a grand Die Meistersinger production with Robert O'Hearn sets and Joseph Rosenstock conducting. Singers show mixed quality from Kenya and Fenn to Tozzi and Donch, while Merrill's staging strains to synchronize with the score. Yet the preludes and master-songs drive the evening, and the music ultimately conquers the production flaws for many spectators.
