A live recording from Monaco in 1974 conducted by the legendary, elusive Carlos Kleiber. Kleiber never recorded Der Rosenkavalier commercially, and this live recording boasts very good sound. Born in 1930, the son of another fine conductor (Erich Kleiber), Carlos Kleiber ended up outshining his father and being widely recognized as one of the greatest musicians of the twentieth century. He had a cult following through much of his career, and since his death in 2004 it has only increased in intensity. Kleiber was famous for brilliant interpretations of a smallish repertoire, mostly a few operas and symphonies, his recording of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony being frequently singled out as the greatest of all time, a model of balance between excitement and repose. He seldom appeared in public and was more famous for canceling appearances than making them. His behavior may have been eccentric, but his artistry was sublime. The premiere of the opera on January 26, 1911, at the Hofoper in Dresden, was a magnificent success, and Der Rosenkavalier's luster has scarcely dimmed in the ensuing years. It remains the most popular and oft-performed opera by Richard Strauss, who in turn is the most famous German opera composer of the twentieth century. The music is a deft blend of Viennese schmaltz and modernisms, making the listener feel warm, comfortable, and dreadfully chic at the same time. Hugo von Hofmannsthal (1874-1929) created seven librettos for Strauss, of which this was the second, achieving perhaps the most perfect operatic collaboration since Da Ponte and Mozart.
