Elsa of Brabant is suspected of having killed her younger brother Gottfried in the forest. This accusation is put forward by Friedrich of Telramund, Count of Brabant, whose wife Ortrud is secretly plotting against Elsa. When King Henry the Fowler asks Elsa to defend herself, she pleads for an imaginary knight to come to her aid. King Henry asks the men present to fight to defend the honour of Elsa of Brabant, but no one steps forward. Suddenly, Lohengrin, the Knight of the Swan, appears. He promises to fight for Elsa, but makes her promise beforehand never to question him about his identity or provenance.

Luisa Miller

Sun, May 24, 2026, 18:00
Hamburgische Staatsoper, Großes Haus (Hamburg)
Henrik Nánási (Musical Director), Alice Meregaglia (Chorus), Gábor Bretz (Il Conte di Walter), Pavol Breslik (Rodolfo), George Petean (Miller), Elbenita Kajtazi (Luisa), Alexander Roslavets (Wurm), Kristina Stanek (Federica), Elizaveta Kulagina (Laura), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus)
"Luisa Miller" is Giuseppe Verdi’s third setting of a play by Friedrich Schiller. “It is a great drama, full of passion and very effective in theatrical terms,” the composer wrote to the librettist Salvadore Cammarano about Kabale und Liebe. In order to conform to the expectations of the censors and audience, Verdi first had to reduce the play to a libretto suitable for opera, moving the focus from Schiller’s political tale to the family drama. In his opera, first performed in Naples in 1849, Verdi produced outstanding character studies of all his protagonists. In this work he laid the foundation for many “Verdi types” of later years, e.g. Iago, Giorgio Germont, Aida or Desdemona. Luisa Miller was first performed in Hamburg at the Hamburg State Opera in 1981 in a new production conducted by Giuseppe Sinopoli and directed by Luciano Damiani, who also designed the sets and costumes at the time. Director: Andreas Homoki Set Designer: Paul Zoller Costume Designer: Gideon Davey Lighting Designer: Franck Evin Premiere: 16.11.2014
