It was between composing the first and second parts of the Ring cycle and after completing Tristan und Isolde that Wagner wrote his sole comic opera.

German bass Georg Zeppenfeld originally trained as a music and German teacher, and only then began his singing studies.
According to his own admission, it was not easy for him or his voice teacher, because the Westphalian dialect is not necessarily suitable for opera singing. However, their joint work proved successful, and Zeppenfeld now performs the most important roles.
