By Bogdanov, Galkin, Koslowski, Samosud, Schumskaja, Smolenskaja, and UDSSR Radio Symphony Orchestra And Chorus. By Richard Wagner. Classical. 3 listening CDs. Published by Naxos (NX.WLCD0037).

This is a Lohengrin sure to be welcomed by the true Wagnerian connoisseur. Offered complete for the first time on CD and re-mastered in 24bit/96kHz audio, Walhall's Eternity Series brings to market a 1949 Moscow, USSR performance of the opera, sung in Russian. Evincing tremendous vocal power and voice control, Ivan Kozlovsky (1900-93), a lyric tenor then at his apex, heads the all-Russian cast; his performance ranks with those of the more familiar Wagnerian Lohengrins of the era, Melchior and Konya, in their respective primes. Samuil Samosud conducts the USSR Radio Symphony Orchestra and Chorus.
