About this album
Carlos Kleiber’s Der Freischütz is a gripping and finely balanced reading of Weber’s Romantic opera. Recorded in 1973 with the Staatskapelle Dresden, Gundula Janowitz, Edith Mathis, Peter Schreier and Theo Adam, it brings vivid orchestral colour and dramatic precision to a landmark work of German opera. Kleiber’s alert pacing and sculpted phrasing draw out the score’s eerie atmosphere, lyrical warmth and theatrical momentum, while the distinguished cast gives the characters real vocal distinction. Widely admired as one of the great modern interpretations, this recording helped secure Der Freischütz’s place as a central Romantic opera rather than a historical curiosity.
