If that opera sent you, I doubt that La Boheme would do much for you. But you might enjoy something like Lulu or Wozzeck. Or Strauss -- Elektra or Salome might tickle your fancy. Certainly not Der Rosenkavalier! The problem with opera for a lot of folks is that most of it is in foreign languages, which they don't have the patience to deal with. But try Peter Grimes (not as violently shocking as...

Mainly Mozart takes a detour into Richard Strauss Land
San Diego Union (Free subscription) | 08/06/2008
He was a titan of the late romantic era, celebrated for such works as “Thus Spoke Zarathustra,” “Don Quixote” and “Der Rosenkavalier.” So, why is an organization with a name like Mainly Mozart presenting a Richard Strauss mini-festival during its upcoming season?

Der Rosenkavalier at ENO
Opera Today (Free subscription) | 04/06/2008
It is worth remembering that prior to the première of Strauss’s opera in 1911, the working title was ‘Ochs auf Lerchenau’.

Der Rosenkavalier, Coliseum, London
The Independent (Free subscription) | 26/05/2008
In the final scene of Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier, just as the Marschallin is about to leave her lover, Octavian, to the younger woman, she says to Sophie: "No need to talk so much. You're pretty, that's enough." But is it? For those who hope that Octavian will come to his senses and leave the air-headed ingnue before it's too late, David McVicar's production plants some hopeful clues. Indeed, Octavian...

Zurich Opera/Strauss Der Rosenkavalier, Royal Festival Hall, London

You can take the boy out of Austria but you can't take Austria out of the boy. Franz Welser-Most has always been a very contained conductor – precise, rhythmic, unfussy – but release him into this entrancing world of a bygone Vienna that even Strauss and his librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthal could only imagine and the instincts of his heritage unconsciously come into play.

These tickets are free. New Year's Eve concert. It's Berlin and 1992, but still. Renée Fleming, Frederica von Stade, and Kathleen Battle in probably the most affecting and beautiful moment in 20th century operathe final trio from Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier .

Particularly in the concert suite drawn from Strauss’ magnificent and magical opera Der Rosenkavalier - I think that I’ve got the single most sublime note in the entire piece (but I’m just a little [...]
