 Walt Disney Concert Hall - Piece Detail   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
For Der Rosenkavalier (The Cavalier of the Rose), which is set in 18th-century Vienna, Strauss turned, rather surprisingly, to the waltz.
By the time Richard Strauss - no relation - composed Der Rosenkavalier in 1909-10, the sun was setting on that golden age, and he used the waltz as short-hand for the elegance and grace of a bygone era.
In the opera, Octavian, a young nobleman (sung by a mezzo-soprano, which makes the part one of the most famous so-called trouser roles), is carrying on a love affair with the Marschallin (she is married to a Field Marshal, which explains her name, a feminized form of the German "Marschall").

 Hagen: Der Rosenkavalier/ Online Musik Magazin
Der dritte Akt besinnt sich auf die ausstatterischen Qualitäten des ersten und entschädigt weitgehend die Unsäglichkeit des zweiten (die albernen Gespenster muss man fairerweise den Herren Strauss und Hofmannsthal, die diesen Unfug in Partitur und Libretto festgeschrieben haben, ankreiden).
Neben dieser zu zwei Dritteln hübsch anzuschauenden Bebilderung übt sich die Regie, was die Deutung des Stückes betrifft, in bescheidener Zurückhaltung und überlässt der Musik das Feld – mit Erfolg, denn die Hagener Philharmoniker wachsen an diesem Abend über sich hinaus und warten mit einer nicht nur sehr konzentrierten, sondern klangschönen und transparenten Interpretation auf.
Neben der Marschallin wird auch der Octavian mit einer hauseigenen Sängerin besetzt: Marylin Bennett schlägt sich tapfer, muss die Stimme aber immer wieder forcieren, um sich gegen das Orchester durchsetzen zu können.

 Lotte Lehmann on Der Rosenkavalier
She was the first singer to perform, in succession, all three of the opera's principal soprano roles, and she was the composer's favorite Marschallin.
