Strauss Der Rosenkavalier poster

Released in 1960, Strauss Der Rosenkavalier is a notable film.

What it’s about. This wonderful film has had a spotty release history, and has been in and out of print over the years, establishing itself as one of the must have cult items for a certain segment of the opera loving public. With this new Blu-ray transfer, hopefully it can stay in print long enough for fans to gobble it up, for it most certainly is a feast worthy of a Waltz King Richard Strauss. Elisabeth Schwarzkopf is a near-perfect heroine in this poignantly comic look at aging and starcrossed lovers. Though this is not a flashy production, it's of such inestimable historical value, and presents this opera in such a glorious performance, that it's easy to overlook some of the technical issues of this Blu-ray. Highly recommended.

Who’s in it. Strauss Der Rosenkavalier stars Elisabeth Schwarzkopf as Marschallin, Erich Kunz as Herr von Faninal and Herbert von Karajan as Conductor.
