Ep. 109 Die Frau Ohne Schatten by Richard Strauss
Manage episode 367026526 series 1549581
At once a sweeping story about humanity and a deeply personal look at a married couple with unfulfilled aspirations, Die Frau Ohne Schatten is often considered the magnum opus of the famed partnership between composer Richard Strauss and librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthal. Moving between lofty, other-worldly, and gritty settings, this opera simultaneously puzzles and inspires audiences. Being human, this opera tells us, is a messy business, but ultimately, the greatest pursuit and prize in all creation.
