Wagner Reloaded-Live in Leipzig is the first live album and eleventh album overall by the Finnish

première
of Wagner Reloaded. This was a joint venture between German choreographer Gregor Seyffert and Apocalyptica. The event witnessed a blend of dance performances, circus and theatre arts, audiovisual effects, and live music.

To remember this event a state-of-the-art Live CD of Wagner Reloaded was released featuring Apocalyptica and the

MDR Symphony Orchestra. The music is influenced by the overall work of Wagner, but is written by Apocalyptica's Eicca Toppinen
. It therefore represents an album of new Apocalyptica material that is entirely instrumental.
