Can love withstand the inevitable passage of time? Absent from Montreal stages for more than thirty years, Richard Strauss’s operatic masterpiece Der Rosenkavalier returns in a concert version co-produced with the Opéra de Montréal and the Orchestre Métropolitain.
Nostalgic for Viennese waltzes as well as for Mozartian comedy, Strauss unfolds music of elegance and emotional richness that continues to captivate audiences. Yannick Nézet‑Séguin brings together an exceptional cast to create a true generational event. Diana Damrau embodies a Marschallin of remarkable depth. Emily D’Angelo lends Octavian the ardor of youth. Erin Morley gives Sophie a crystalline grace, while Peter Rose portrays a delightfully boisterous Baron Ochs.
All have triumphed in these roles on the world’s greatest stages, from New York to Milan, and their names have become inseparable from these iconic characters. Several other great Canadian and international voices will join these soloists. Rarely has a cast seemed so ideal!
