Lohengrin

Synopsis

The Salzburg Easter Festival's production of Lohengrin, directed by Jossi Wieler and Sergio Morabito, presents Wagner's classic as a crime thriller in Vienna. Christian Thielemann, acclaimed Wagner expert, conducts the Vienna State Opera orchestra, while David Butt Philip shines as Lohengrin. Malin Byström's Elsa reveals a less innocent character, and Anja Kampe delivers a powerful Ortrud. Martin Gantner's Telramund displays precision. The production excels in stage and orchestral synergy, offering nuanced performances and delicate choral singing made possible by Thielemann’s baton. “When it comes to Wagner, Christian Thielemann really is in a class of his own” (Der Standard)
