Synopsis

Lohengrin

---

As Lohengrin, Peter Hofmann gives a performance that is dazzling in every gesture and every tone. Karan Armstrong replies with a very lyrical timbre and applies expressionistic means to convey sorrow, wonder and the bitterness of leave-taking. This production by Gotz Friedrich was recorded at the Bayreuth Festspielhaus in 1982.
