Wagner lovers and those who want to find out more about<br />

the young Wagner should come to <strong>Leipzig</strong> in <strong>2013</strong>. That’s<br />

when the city celebrates the 200 th birthday of the great<br />

composer, who was born here in <strong>Leipzig</strong>. The programme includes numerous concerts and<br />

opera performances, a top-class week-long music festival in May and the opening of the<br />

Richard Wagner Exhibition in the Old St. Nicholas School on 21 May <strong>2013</strong>. To ensure that<br />

the composer continues to be honoured in the city of his birth, a contemporary monument<br />

by the sculptor Stephan Balkenhol will also be formally unveiled. Please refer also to our<br />

packages on pages 26 and 38! www.richard-wagner-leipzig.de<br />
