Renée Fleming heads “a galactic cast” in Strauss’s bittersweet comedy of love, staged at the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden. Accompanying Fleming’s peerless Marschallin is Sophie Koch as the ardent Octavian and Diana Damrau as the young Sophie, with Jonas Kaufmann appearing as the Italian Singer. Christian Thielemann’s authoritative interpretation has been completely re-edited for this release.
History
Richard Strauss’s Der Rosenkavalier
Strauss and Hofmannsthal’s bittersweet comedy, first staged in 1911, masterfully combines humor (of both the sophisticated and the slapstick kind) with genuine emotion and human drama. The ravishing final trio of the three leading female voices is among the most celebrated pieces in the operatic repertoire.
