Tristão e Isolda
«In 1983 the family Just-Doppler acquired the Wels’ hotel Greif with its integrated theatre. Renovating the gem and bringing the stage up to date, Walter Just, the founder of the Trodat-firm and a enthusiastic Wagner admirer, discovered the aforementioned little recess: without doubt this special place was perfect for a Richard Wagner’s bust. (...) The bust was celebrated with a Wagner Concert, which was a tremendous success and the booster detonation to the following. No-one had expected it to become such a great international success.
Systematically and with a lot of love the Wagner project was developed in Wels, the city where Hans Sachs, the main character from „Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg“, spend a few years. After the opening concert in 1989 in the presence of the director of the Bayreuth Festival , Wolfgang Wagner, the initiators decided to organise a gala every year. The splendid celebrations were supported by renowned singers such as Theo Adam, Lisbeth Balslev, Simon Estes, Reiner Goldberg, Sabine Hass, Janis Martin, Uta Priew, Hans Sotin, Bernd Weikl, Heinz Zednik and many others. Finally the prominent stage designer Günther Schneider-Siemssen encouraged the initiators to organise scenical performances. As a result in 1995 “Tristan und Isolde” was performed - with unprecedented success. The audience rush was so huge that the production was repeated the following two years. Other operas like „Die Walküre“, „Siegfried“, „Parsifal“, „Der fliegende Holländer“ and "Lohengrin" followed.»
