Description:
LOHENGRIN, first performed in 1850, is a Romantic opera in three acts, written by Richard Wagner (1813-1883). Based on the legendary 13th century romance of Lohengrin, a knight of the Holy Grail, who is sent in a boat pulled by swans to rescue the maiden, Elsa, who must never ask his name, the “Bridal Chorus” from the beginning of Act III is now universally recognized as “Here Comes the Bride.” But the exciting “Prelude” to Act III is nearly as well-known, and remains a major part of the orchestra repertoire. This edition is written with the concert ending as recorded by the great Arturo Toscanini. Instrumentation in set: 3.3.3.3: 4.3.3.1: Timp.Perc(3): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).
