"The Munich National Theater was filled with pure, exquisite Wagnerian vocal bliss; the Bavarian State Opera became a Valhalla on earth" (Die Welt).

With Jonas Kaufmann's long-awaited role debut as Lohengrin and Anja Harteros as Elsa, Wagner's epic of love and loss was not only the opening premiere of the Munich Opera Festival, but also its undisputed highlight. That's why the performance was not only followed by a long sold-out house, but also by tens of thousands of spectators at a live public viewing event in Munich and Vienna.

Under General Music Director Kent Nagano, the ensemble of the Munich Opera triumphantly confirmed that with this production at the latest it belongs to the pantheon of the great Wagner houses of our time. Tenor Jonas Kaufmann, who drew the public's attention with every note, particularly in the incredible pianissimi of The Grail Narrative, eloquently proved his reputation as "one of the most important and versatile singers of our time" (The Times). Matching Kaufmann's consummate artistry is Anja Harteros, an imposing, charismatic beauty who has been at home on the world's biggest stages since her spectacular Met debut. The renowned director Richard Jones also gives "every character the necessary psychological depth" (La Libre Belgique).
