Metropolitan Opera: Live in HD
Capriccio (5x10)
: 23, 2011
The age-old question for opera: which is more important, the words or the music? Strauss' last opera doesn't really answer the question, but there's some elegant singing to be heard here, from Ms. Fleming and Mr.Kaiser in particular. (Igor Stravinsky, on the other hand, once said this music makes him gag.)
