Description
RICHARD WAGNER: Lohengrin DVD (All Regions) 2020
DVD re-release of the exclusive recording of Richard Wagner's opera Lohengrin at the Bayreuth Festival 1982, a masterful interpretation from the source of Wagner culture.
Richard Wagner's opera in three acts is an extraordinarily lyrical piece that is shaped by the composer's romantic view of the freedom struggle of the individual under oppressive rule. Lohengrin is also called Wagner's most Italian opera.
The title role fits particularly well with the acting and musical talents of Peter Hofmann, who is celebrated for his portrayal of the Lohengrin. He leads an exceptional Wagner cast, including Karan Armstrong as Elsa, Elizabeth Connell as Ortrud and Siegfried Vogel as King Heinrich.
The deep psychological insights of this staging ensure that this Lohengrin remains one of the most impressive testimonials of Götz Friedrich's timeless directing.
It was filmed on the stage of the Bayreuth Festival Hall shortly before the festival actually started. The shooting lasted for several days, but without an audience
