I'll never forget seeing Der Rosenkavalier with these three - May 5, 2017. One of my fondest operatic memories.

Jetzt hätte ich beinahe Renee Fleming nicht erkannt, auch nicht im ersten Singen - wunderschön!

i think 2017 rosenkav was so good because the singers were really feeling their roles: erin is a young singer just beginning the rise of her career, elina is shifting identities from young to more mature, and renee is about to leave a chapter of her life behind forever as she grows older. it's like a coming of age for all three of them...

Physically, Garanca is the most convincing Octavian ever! Really handsome! :-)

And she captures perfectly the physicality of a young man too -- the way a young man would walk, hold and move his body. Pretty incredible. Some serious thought and study has gone into the development of the character.

Elena Garanca is one of my most favourite opera singers but speaking of the best Octavian ever, I would point my finger toAnne Sofie von Otter…tall, blonde, aristocratic (a Baroness in real life) who Richard Strauss envisioned for such role. I read somewhere that when Strauss was composing Der Rosenkavalier, he had in mind the Australian-Hungarian Prince Esterhazy. Ms von Otter epitomises those qualities added by her rich mezzo soprano voice. (Just saying…..)

Agreed. Short of the Hapsburg period at the turn of the century (around the time this opera was composed) setting being perfectly logical and fitting, I did not like this production. There are simply things that are completely out of place and make no sense - like the Ancient Greek art motifs in the Fanninal manor, and the falling down little dance those figures in the dark do at the very end of the opera right as the last notes are played before the curtain falls. Just completely arbitrary, random, and distracting.

@@tomhase7007 That's why Strauss wanted a mezzo en travestì. If he wanted, along with Hoffmannsthal, to be clear about the fact that was a straight relationship he could've easily chosen a tenor. But, as you say, their intention was clear in their letters. Of course Wikipedia wanna-be music critics or "historians" often, if not always, impose some casual erasure of homosexuality in music and in history.

Christa Ludwig and Elizabeth Schwarzkopf still own these roles. Renee Fleming looks like a drag queen. Garanca is ok but still lacks emotion and depth Christa Ludwig had. Schwarzkopf powered through this. Fleming is clearly struggling with the demands of the role
