Der Rosenkavelier
PostedJanuary 10, 2010

Der Rosenkavelier has always been one of my top 3-5 operas, along with Othello, Marriage of Figaro and Elisir d'Amore. It combines the human condition and humor with spellbinding orchestration and vocal virtuosity.
I have just seen the best Rosenkavelier of my life. Each character was perfect for the role both as actors and singers. I hate to single out any of the cast for fear of making readers think I am downplaying anyone.
To me, the Der Rosenkavelier leit motif is hauntingly beautiful. And what can be better than the trio at the end of Act III?
We often go to the Met, but now I am also hooked on Live from the Met in HD.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
