Title NameLohengrin, WWV 75: Act I: Prelude (Vorspiel)
Marketing CopyFinished in 1848 and premiered in 1950 in Weimar, Germany, Richard Wagner's (1813-1883) LOHENGRIN tells a story of a tragic medieval German romance in the Knight of the Swan tradition. Elsa, a princess in Brabant, is rescued and wedded by a knight in shining armor who insists on remaining nameless. Most are familiar with the famous wedding march from the opera (commonly referred to today as "Here Comes the Bride"). The shimmering Prelude to Act I depicts the descent of the Holy Grail from Heaven, beginning with strings in their high register, the music swelling throughout to a full orchestra crescendo as the Grail touches the earth. Instrumentation: 3.2+EH.2+BCl.3: 4.3.3.1: Timp.Perc(1): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).
