In June 2023, the “Wagner Group” mercenaries marched on Moscow and announced their intention to take power in Russia. The founder, a self-confessed Russian neo-Nazi, had named the group after the German composer Richard Wagner. The mercenaries described themselves as musicians, the weapons were their instruments and they saw the war as an opera. With WAGNER WELTWEIT, the music theatre collective Sounding Situations, based in Hamburg and Berlin, creates a multi-perspective production about the activities of the “Wagner Group” in musical cinemascope. Together with the instrumentalists, a multi-layered and heterogeneous live composition is created. Sensitive, contemporary, Dionysian and minimal – a real-time Ring of the Nibelung in the news studio.
