Wagner's
'Lohengrin' is described
as a 'great romantic
opera' in which Wagner
opens up two completely
different worlds for the
listener. On the one
hand, there is the
mystical world of the
Knight of the Grail which
could be described as
embodiment of the
Christian element in
'Lohengrin', and on the
other hand, there is the
opposing magical world of
Ortrud. Wagner had
studied the origins of
the medieval legend of
the Knight of the Swan
intensively for years,
with Wolfram von
Eschenbach's work
certainly being the best
source for Wagner's
libretto.Apart from the
libretto, this edition
contains introductory
commentaries of Kurt
Pahlen who also adds
information on the
compositional structure
and context to the
musical as well as
external and internal
dramatic action of the
opera. A short synopsis
and a brief outline of
the genesis bring the
work into relation with
the composer's entire
oeuvre and life, thus
offering a comprehensive,
richly illustrated
introduction.
