It’s the third and final installment of our three-part series introducing you to the opera world of Germany. Last week, George took you around Germany’s smaller houses. Today he started in Heidelberg and ended up in Munich... George's first guest is Lydia Steier, an American director based in Germany. She's currently directing Wagner's 'Der Fliegende Holländer'. You’ll hear her take on why she came to Germany to work, and whether or not she wants to go home to the US...

We’ve also got this week’s opera headlines, our Monday Evening Quarterback segment, and Oliver checks in from Chicago with a field report...
