Guennewig Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten

During their 2005/2006 season the Leipzig Opera presented new productions of

-- A Masked Ball (Un ballo in maschera) by Giuseppe Verdi. (I described this opera in an album on my Nürnberg page, by the way)

-- The Abduction from the Serail by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

-- Parsifal by Richard Wagner

-- a new opera The Black Monk by Philippe Hersant

-- and the musical Hair.

Prices at the Leipzig Opera are quite reasonable. On a typical night you could expect to pay EUR 42.00 for a seat in the best category, but if you don't mind sitting back where I usually sit you can get in for EUR 18.00, or on some nights even as little as EUR 9.00.
