Conductor:
Claudio Abbado

Background: Richard Wagner was a one-man artistic movement, a figure so massive that his influence was felt by all of his contemporaries and all of his major successors. This remarkable production, under Claudio Abbado, has a stellar cast. Cheryl Studer as Elsa, and Placido Domingo as Lohengrin are the cornerstone of a dream cast.

Wolfgang Weber's simple staging, muted colours, dark clouds, barren landscapes and simple shapes, succeeds in evoking clear middle ages symbolism. His staging does not impress by means of the spectacular, but underlines the dramatic sense embodied in the music, allowing the outstanding singers full scope to express themselves.
