Lohengrin
Lohengrin's premiere was in 1850 with Franz Liszt conducting.
Wagner was in exile and could not attend the premiere. The first production was a disappointment, and Wagner began talking about a festival theatre built by himself, an idea that later manifested itself in the Festival House in Bayreuth.
The first time Lohengrin was performed in Bayreuth was in 1894.
