The Viennese aristocracy is accustomed to disputes between families: the rude Baron Ochs auf Lerchenau interrupts a private morning conversation between his cousin Marschallin and her young lover Octavian to ask for help with his wedding plans, which are based more on financial gain than love. Ochs has no idea that Octavian, who has been chosen to deliver the engagement rose, will ultimately fall in love with the bride.
Multimedia artist André Heller makes his eagerly awaited debut as a stage director at the Berlin State Opera with Richard Strauss's tragicomic Rosenkavalier, and critics are full of praise: "With his production of Rosenkavalier, André Heller creates a monument to perfection" (Die Zeit). Maestro Zubin Mehta conducts the magnificent Berlin Staatskapelle orchestra and "a cast of singers in which Camilla Nylund and Günther Groissböck are particularly outstanding" (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung). Michèle Losier and Nadine Sierra make their debuts in the roles of Octavian and Sophie. A dream cast for this production of Der Rosenkavalier! The set design is by internationally renowned painter Xenia Hausner, and the costumes are by rising fashion star Arthur Arbesser. The luxurious set design was inspired by the Belle Époque era and Art Nouveau style.
