This summer, Andris Nelsons returns to London’s Royal Opera House to lead Wagner’s Lohengrin, featuring a new production (the first at the ROH since 1977) and a spectacular international cast. Klaus Florian Vogt sings the title role, Jennifer Davis is Elsa, Christine Goerke sings Ortrud, and Thomas J. Mayer is Telramund. Director David Alden sets the stage for this sweeping Romantic masterwork, which audiences can enjoy from June 7 through July 1.
