SUMMARY:A Note on Opera: "Der Rosenkavalier "
DESCRIPTION:Richard Strauss’s “Der Rosenkavalier” [The Knight of the Rose] premiered in Dresden in 1911. It was a radical departure from Strauss’s preceding works and his 2nd collaboration with one of the great German-language playwrights\, the Austrian hugo von Hofmansthal.\n\nOriginally intended to be a full-blown comedy\, as composition progressed “Rosenkavalier” evolved into a nuanced\, affectionate observation on the vagaries of the human heart and the accpetance of time passing us by.\n\nCourse to be taught in English by Mr. David Kerr\, no previous musical knowledge is required.
