Welsh National Opera - Der Rosenkavalier at the Liverpool Empire Theatre, Liverpool

Welsh National Opera - Der Rosenkavalier

If you love somebody, set them free.

The Marschallin has all the riches in the world, and a young lover – Octavian – to make her feel alive. But the one thing she can’t control is time, and fears the fading of her beauty.

When the Marschallin’s fortune-hunting cousin arrives in town seeking a suitable messenger to present a silver rose as way of proposal to the beautiful Sophie, she immediately offers the service of Octavian. He instantly falls for the youthful, Sophie but can the Marschallin set him free, and let true love prevail?

Richard Strauss’ sumptuous opera offers comedy and poignant drama in equal measure, with unforgettable arias, trios and waltzes. The bittersweet narrative focuses on the emotions of the characters, as we see the Marschallin learn to accept the passing of time.

Duration - approx. 4 hours including two intervals.

Sung in German with surtitles in English and Welsh.

A co-production with Theater Magdeburg.
