Wagner: Lohengrin Streaming.
Movie Title: Wagner: Lohengrin Wagner: Lohengrin is available for streaming or downloading. |
I rarely review items for Amazon, prefering to leave that to others. This production is, however, of such high quality I feel it deserves all the recognition it can accept.
Staging is sparse, but appropriate and meaningful to the inch of the yarn line. Costumes are not necessarily recent, but certainly not ‘period correct’. They are very striking though, and lend brilliance to the execute.

The singing is spectacular from all the characters.
Musical direction is first rate. Most of all, the sound and characterize quality in Bluray is splendid.
This is, for my money, the best available version of ‘Lohingrin” available. Wagner’s work is allowed to impart for itself, without imposition of any outside agendas. Highly recommended.
Three stars for the safe singing, valid acting, effective exhaust of blu-ray visuals. I haven’t seen the regular DVD version but I doubt that in it, Elsa’s floral bouquet and elegant white wedding dress in Act II would have the same impact.

I am stunned that my prejudices and preconceived notions prevent me from accepting anything but a fairy legend version of Lohengrin. Anything else is unbiased slow laughable. In the accompanying 68 petite documentary, we learn that the aim here was for a “psychological” version. So in the bridal chamber, Lohengrin composes music on a mirror imaged piano, with treble and bass reversed, meaning he is an artist from another universe and the forbidden request is about the suitable meaning of art. O brother! There were plenty of other inanities. Gottfried is restored to human make as a 9 year used, wearing long undies and fair stands there. Wagner’s directions have Elsa dying in his arms, but oh well. Vogt’s Lohengrin seem somewhere between helden-tenor and counter-tenor which indeed does give the title character an other worldly nature. In the documentary his speaking command suggests he is a natural baritone or bass. Maybe the singing affirm is supposed to suggest the genuine reason that Lohengrin doesn’t make on the wedding night (HeHe) .
Another star gets docked for the sound balance between soloists, chorus and orchestra. I chose the lossless 5.1 PCM track. This is the first time I have had to continually fiddle with the volume and bass controls in a BD. I rarely do it even with an ordinary DVD opera. A genuine grief was made not to conceal the singers with the orchestra. But they over did it. Now as Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau has pointed out, in Wagner, the orchestra carries the melody and the singers ornament it. In dissimilarity to Italian opera where I concentrate on the singing, I mostly listen to the orchestra in Wagner and in this BD, they sounded like they were gradual the stage instead of in front. It also was a odd accomplish to hear the chorus making about the same volume of sound as the soloists.
To sum up, I am not sorry about my two day rental of this item but would not hold it and will turn to other versions for my next Lohengrin.
