- A new production
from Festspielhaus Baden-Baden With powerful conviction, Nikolaus Lehnhoff
interprets Wagner’s Lohengrin as the dramatic struggle of masculine and
feminine, revenge and compassion. Powerfully acted, almost like a Strindberg
play, and musically of the highest order, this Lohengrin from the
Festspielhaus in Baden-Baden will be a benchmark production for decades.
- With his
extraordinarily transparent interpretation of the title role, Klaus Florian
Vogt leads an inspired cast to visionary realms that are rarely touched, let
alone captured on High Definition film and in pure surround sound. The monumental
sets by Stephan Braunfels and Kent Nagano’s sublimely well-balanced musical
interpretation complete a deeply moving total-theatre experience.
- This production
has reunited stage director Nikolaus Lehnhoff and the conductor Kent Nagano who
collaborated in Baden-Baden’s Parsifal two years ago also released on
Opus Arte (OA 0915 D)
- Monumental set design by architect Stephan Braunfels who has won recognition for his designs of buildings in Berlin and Munich
