Strauss wrote music to investigate deep into the minds, hearts and lives of his characters. This is early 20th century, post-Freud music that can be both pleasant and challenging to listen to in the same opera. And, these operas are still entertaining! Conductors, singers and designers selected for this class are offering their very best work.
This offering meets for a total of 13 session(s).
INSTRUCTOR: Robert Violette
VIOLETTE, ROBERT–Has enjoyed a life of singing the leading roles in the operas of Mozart, Verdi, Puccini, Strauss and Wagner, as well as some contemporary composers. Each composer taught him how to listen, understand and appreciate their own language.
