The lost generation of opera composers

Posted onJanuary 11, 2022October 2, 20222 Comments

In June 2010 in the Zürich opera house I had a super box seat with some lovely people for a performance of the opera Der ferne Klang (The distant sound) by Franz Schreker (1878-1934). This is Schreker’s second opera. It had its world premiere in Frankfurt in 1912, but had Read More …

The People’s Opera

Posted onJune 5, 2021May 30, 20213 Comments

The Volksoper (meaning “People’s Opera”) in Vienna puts on about three hundred performances per year — nearly every evening from September through June — of operas, operettas, musicals and ballets. Like the Komische Oper in Berlin and the Gärtnerplatz opera house in Munich, the Volksoper has a policy of performing most their Read More …

Musikverein in Vienna

Posted onMay 26, 2021January 30, 20186 Comments

The Musikverein (Music Society) maintains this ornate historic concert hall in the center of Vienna. The one concert I attended here was many years ago, so I have no photos of the inside, but you can easily see what it looks like by watching (for example) the annual televised New Read More …

The State Opera in Prague

Posted onFebruary 15, 2021February 14, 202117 Comments

The State Opera in Prague (Státní Opera Praha) has the most dreadful location of any opera house I can think of. The front entrance is cut off from the city by a high-speed four-lane motorway called Wilsonova with no pedestrian crossing, just a dark narrow tunnel that looks like the Read More …

Salzburg State Theatre

Posted onApril 18, 2020September 1, 20182 Comments

While Salzburg is full of impressive and significant places to visit, like the fortress, the cathedral quarter, the festival halls and the two Mozart houses, I must admit that my favorite place in this town is the Landestheater (State Theatre), an outwardly inconspicuous building on Makartplatz that you might not Read More …

Opera in K-Town

Posted onMarch 17, 2017September 4, 20214 Comments

Kaiserslautern, better known to my fellow Americans as K-Town, is a city of nearly a hundred thousand people — not counting the fifty thousand American and other NATO military personnel who are stationed nearby. Thanks to the new InterCityExpress rail connection, Kaiserslautern is now less than two and a half Read More …
