"The best overall performance was from William Dazeley as a pathetically vainglorious Beckmesser, and he made him both pitiful and very – very -funny in his absolute self-belief. Dazeley has a fine baritone voice and was certainly a match for many more famous Beckmessers I have watched in the past. The masters collectively sang very well and all appeared to have their own bits of business to keep them engaged with what was going on even when just sitting on their chairs"
