Edinburgh International Festival
A concert performance of Richard Wagner 's epic opera in three acts, with tenor Torsten Kerl as the knight in shining armour and soprano Hillevi Martinpelto as Elsa. Petra Lang sings the role of Ortrud. The fairy-tale opera is packed full of magnificent set-pieces: medieval battle scenes, black magic, courtly intrigue and, central to the plot, the tragic story of two star-crossed lovers. Recorded last month at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh and presented by Donald Macleod. Sung in German.
