Strauss concert in Zurich

Mar 31, 2024

Diana Damrau will perform works by Richard Strauss at the Opernhaus Zürich on April 14. The centrepiece of the evening is the closing scene from Strauss’ Capriccio, in which whether the music or the text is more important is a question that gets asked, but not answered.

The program also features the tone poem “Macbeth”, the three glittering Lieder “Ständchen”, “Wiegenlied” and “Morgen!”, and four interludes from the opera Intermezzo. Gianandrea Noseda conducts the Philharmonia Zürich.
