| “ | This delightful performance of Strauss' magnificent opera is conducted by Carlos Kleiber, who obviously delights in the music. Otto Schenk demonstrates the value that an excellent director brings to the staging of a grand opera. It's a window back into 19th century Vienna. The performers, too, are top caliber. Gwyneth Jones has both the youthful playfulness needed in the first act, and the thoughtful reserve and majesty required of an empress, in the final act. Our "young couple" are Brigitte Fassbaender and Lucia Popp, who join the Marschallin in gorgeous singing and equally excellent acting. Manfred Jungwirth is as good (or bad and boorish) as Baron Ochs can be. You'll justifiably anticipate that wonderful sustained bass note at the end of Act 2, where he sanctimoniously laments how drab the world must seem to everyone, whenever he's not around. If you've never seen Rosenkavalier, this would be a fine first experience. If you've seen several versions already, I think you'll agree that "they got it right!" | ” |
