Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier from the Met
Ren茅e Fleming sings her signature role of the Marschallin for the final time in Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier. Sebastian Weigle conducts the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra.
The elegant Marschallin is devoted to her younger lover, the impetous Octavian, but knows that one day his head will be turned by a younger woman and she'll have to let him go. When Octavian is appointed to deliver a silver rose to the beautiful young heiress Sophie, the inevitable happens. In this performance from 2017 Ren茅e Fleming sings her signature role of the Marschallin for the final time, with El墨na Garan膷a and Erin Morley completing the love triangle, and G眉nther Groissb枚ck as the larger-than-life Baron Ochs. Sebastian Weigle conducts Strauss's intricate score which combines the Viennese waltz with comedy and some of the most sumptuous writing for the female voice.
Presented from New York by Mary Jo Heath and Ira Siff.
