From the Opera Lohengrin. Composed by Richard Wagner. Arranged by Gerard Posch. Baton Music orchestral series. Full Score and set of parts. Baton Music #BM1146-SET. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM1146-SET).

The romantic, picturesque and dramatic appeal of medieval Christianity furnished Richard Wagner, after 'Tannhäuser', with 'Lohengrin'. It's a romantic opera in three acts first performed in 1850 in Weimar under the baton of Liszt, a keen champion of the most vital new music of his day. ‘Elsa’s Procession to the Cathedral’ comes at the end of Act II, when Elsa is on her way to be married to the knight, who we later learn is Lohengrin, ‘Knight of the Holy Grail’. Dutch arranger Gerard Posch transcribed this solemn part of the opera for Symphonic Band.
