Der Rosenkavalier - NY Met Opera

Richard Strauss’ Der Rosenkavalier written in 1911 was a huge success that within a few short years had been translated to Italian and played in the very best of Opera Houses.

This production is a dream cast assembled for Strauss’s grand Viennese comedy, with
incredible sets and costumes too.

A stellar trio assembles to take on the lead roles of Strauss’s comedy, with soprano Lise Davidsen as the Marschallin, opposite mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard in as Octavian, and soprano Erin Morley as Sophie.

Bass Günther Groissböck returns as Baron Ochs, and Markus Brück is Sophie’s father, Faninal.

Maestro Simone Young takes the podium to oversee Robert Carsen’s fin-de-siècle staging.
