SUMMARY:Lohengrin
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Elsa von Brabant is accused of murdering her brother. No one da
 res prove the young woman’s innocence in this mysterious case. Trapped i
 n a reality that no one seems to share with her\, a man enters her life pr
 omising to fight for her cause – on one condition: Elsa must trust him b
 lindly and never ask him his name or birthplace.\n\nBut an intrigue entice
 s Elsa to break her promises. The man’s answer reveals his divine origin
  and brings back Elsa’s brother\; but she pays a high price. Wagner wro
 te Lohengrin during a time of radical revolutionary change. It was premie
 red in Weimar in 1850 under the direction of Franz Liszt. In it\, he addre
 sses the need to oppose social reality with a utopian one that refuses to 
 put love\, truthfulness and justice at the service of blind civil obedienc
 e. Wagner used Wolfram von Eschenbach’s Parsifal epic\, sagas by the Br
 others Grimm and various fairy tale collections as a model. The Spanish op
 era and theatre director Calixto Bieito leads the audience through his art
 works by a \"spirit of presence\" and introduces himself for the first tim
 e at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden with this great romantic opera.
