Katharina Wagner (born 21 May 1978 in Bayreuth) is a German opera stage-director and co-director of the Bayreuth Festival. She is the daughter of Wolfgang Wagner, great-granddaughter of Richard Wagner and great-great granddaughter of Hungarian composer Ferenc (Franz) Liszt. Wagner has staged ''Der fliegende Holländer'' in Würzburg and ''Lohengrin'' in Budapest. Her directorial début at the Bayreuth Festival, staging a production of Richard Wagner's ''Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg'' in July 2007, was booed at its premiere, but established a following which returned to watch the production evolve as Wagner made changes in each of the five years it was on view. Wagner also took a bow after every performance, with audiences split between bravos and boos. On 1 September 2008, Katharina Wagner was named together with her half-sister Eva Wagner-Pasquier as the new director of the Bayreuth Festival by the Richard Wagner Foundation, succeeding their father Wolfgang.〔BBC News (2008-09-01).

They were chosen in preference to their cousin Nike Wagner and the Belgian opera director and administrator Gérard Mortier, who had placed a late joint bid for the directorship on 24 August. In October 2010, Wagner planned to visit Israel in order to invite the Israel Chamber Orchestra to play a concert in July 2011 at the Bayreuth town hall, to end a post-1945 boycott of Wagner's music in Israel. Her visit was canceled after hostility from Holocaust survivors. ==Productions== Der fliegende Holländer (Würzburg) Lohengrin (Budapest) Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg (Bayreuth) Rienzi (Bremen) Tristan und Isolde (Bayreuth) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Katharina Wagner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
