»Lohengrin«Oper von Richard WagnerMusikalische Leitung: Michael GüttlerInszenierung: Henriette HörnigkBühne: Julius Theodor SemmelmannKostüme: Claudia Charlo...

Brabant is in a crisis. The duchy is about to join a war far away, the duke is dead and the heir to the throne, Gottfried, still a child, has disappeared. His sister Elsa is said to have murdered him. Only one thing helps: "A miracle, a miracle!" And that comes in the iconic form of the swan knight Lohengrin. He defends Elsa, but on the condition that she marries him and does not ask his name and where he comes from. Lohengrin brings the utopian new into society, but the game of political intrigues causes the new beginning to fail.

With »Lohengrin«, Richard Wagner created a work that constantly stimulates new interpretations. Wagner's revolutionary music moves between ethereal Grail music and military fanfares, making the complex text an overwhelming total work of art.

English

Brabant steckt in einer Krise. Das Herzogtum soll sich einem weit entfernten Krieg anschließen, der Herzog ist tot und der Thronfolger Gottfried – noch ein Kind – verschwunden. Seine Schwester Elsa soll ihn ermordet haben. Da hilft nur eines: »Ein Wunder, ein Wunder!« Und das kommt in der ikonischen Gestalt des Schwanenritters Lohengrin. Dieser verteidigt Elsa, jedoch unter der Bedingung, dass sie ihn heirate und nicht nach seinem Namen und seiner Herkunft frage. Lohengrin bringt das utopische Neue in die Gesellschaft, doch das politische Intrigenspiel lässt den Neubeginn scheitern.

Richard Wagner schuf mit »Lohengrin« ein Werk, das zu immer neuen Deutungen anregt. Zwischen ätherischer Gralsmusik und militärischen Fanfaren bewegt sich Wagners revolutionäre Musik, die den vielschichtigen Text zu einem überwältigenden Gesamtkunstwerk macht.
