Euryanthe 1958Stuttgart State Opera
Read more about the opera Euryanthe
Euryanthe contains so much wonderful music that it is tragic that attempts to stage it have usually foundered because of the obscurities inherent in the libretto. This was a generally worthy attempt - at least it would have been difficult to recruit a better cast. And the Stuttgart ensemble brought Lohengrin, which is so heavily influenced by Euryanthe, to Edinburgh when they returned in 1966.
Cast details are from a copy of the Festival programme book in the OperaScotland collection.
