A dream came true at Dresden’s Semperoper in May 2016 when opera superstars Piotr Beczala and Anna Netrebko made their Wagner debuts in Lohengrin, inspired to take on their new roles as Lohengrin und Elsa by Christian Thielemann, the Dresden Staatskapelle’s principal conductor and one of the leading Wagner conductors of our day. Die Welt described the performance captured here as “musically one of the finest Lohengrins of all time”. Contributing to the triumph are Evelyn Herlitzius’s Ortrud, Tomasz Konieczny’s Telramund, Georg Zeppenfeld’s King Henry and the Dresden State Opera Chorus.
Wagner: Lohengrin, WWV 75 is a 2017 musical with a runtime of 3 hours and 34 minutes.
