Der Freischütz
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Carl Maria von Weber's Der Freischütz (1821) is a cornerstone of German Romantic opera, and this 1995 recording is a supreme achievement. Birgit Nilsson brings her legendary vocal power and silvery tone to the role of Agatha, delivering a deeply moving performance. Robert Heger conducts the Bavarian State Opera with warmth and drama, bringing Weber's richly orchestrated score to vivid life. The music beautifully balances folk-like simplicity with Romantic grandeur, moving freely between intimate tenderness, excitement, and supernatural mystery. For anyone seeking to understand the roots of Romantic opera, this is a vital and deeply satisfying recording.
