Description
Der Rosenkavalier (CD) - Crespin, Wunderlich
Heinz Wallberg’s intimate familiarity with the work (he conducted it on almost fifty separate occasions) can be heard throughout this 1961 performance of Richard Strauss’s operatic masterpiece Der Rosenkavalier. Captured live at the Teatro Colón, Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1961 with a stellar cast that included Regine Crespin and Fritz Wunderlich, among other Straussian notables, and offered here in 24bit/96kHz re-mastered sound, this is a recording to be set alongside those of Clemens Krauss, Karl Böhm and Herbert von Karajan, all famed and important 20th c. Strauss interpreters.
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.
