The Salzburg Easter Festival will again take place regularly in 2022 from April 9th to 18th.
The focus of the program is the new production of Richard Wagner’s “Lohengrin”.
The American tenor Eric Cutler sings the title role and the soprano Jacquelyn Wagner slips into the role of Elsa. At the director’s desk sit the triumvirate of contemporary music theater aesthetics: Jossi Wieler, Anna Viebrock and Sergio Morabito. Christian Thielemann says goodbye with Lohengrin as artistic director of the festival. The Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden will also be Orchestra in Residence for the last time.
