Lohengrin

Lohengrin

Run Time: 5 hours 00 minutes
Wagner’s soaring masterpiece makes its triumphant return to the Met stage after 17 years. In a sequel to his revelatory production of Parsifal, director Franois Girard unveils an atmospheric staging that once again weds his striking visual style and keen dramatic insight to Wagners breathtaking music, with Music Director Yannick NzetSguin on the podium to conduct a supreme cast led by tenor Piotr Beczała in the title role of the mysterious swan knight. Soprano Tamara Wilson is the virtuous duchess Elsa, falsely accused of murder, going head to head with soprano Christine Goerke as the cunning sorceress Ortrud, who seeks to lay her low. Bassbaritone Evgeny Nikitin is Ortruds powerhungry husband, Telramund, and bass Gnther Groissbck is King Heinrich.
