Internationally acclaimed conductor Carlos Kleiber leads a gorgeous performance of Richard Strauss's great opera 'Der Rosenkavalier'. Performed in 1994 with the Vienna Opera Strauss's masterpiece is given suitable passion and drama by the performances of the lovely Anne Sofie von Otter (as Octavian) Kurt Moll (as Baron Ochs aud Lerchenau) Felicity Lott (as The Marschallin) and a strong supporting cast.
This performance is not, as find-DVD implies by Carlos Kleiber and Felicity Lott, but rather by the still more impressive Herbert von Karajan and Elizabeth Schwarzkopf. Although a stage production it is beautifully filmed with plenty of cinematic-style close ups from natural angles, and the singing and orchestra are, of course, excellent. The print does not feel up to true Blu-Ray quality (the picture is soft and the film grain is not really visible), and there is no surround sound, but does this really matter for a performance of this quality?
