Richard Strauss - Final Scene from Der Rosenkavalier...Finished der Rosenkavalier in two days. I just have to praise Reneé, Elīna, and Erin Morley on their performance of Robert Carsen’s staging, which is so mind-blowing. Elīna deserves an Oscar prize for her trouser role. (Ofc, Grossböck’s portray of Ochs is also unbelievable! He’s not in the video.) #RichardStrauss #METopera

Thanks to Richard Strauss’s Der Rosenkavalier, I came out again, like when I listened to Wagner’s Ring Cycle, from my utopian imagination of men. I guess German humor lies in the ability to reveal the true side of men ;-)

https://images.plurk.com/3OM7Kcs7FYGZ3Tw4x514L.jpg Dima’s performance of Eugene Onegin (with Reneé ofc) showed me what “embodiment” meant. The “letter scene” really brings me back to the time when I fell in love, and my desire to confess and the fear of the very action were perfectly manifested thru Reneé. Ofc, Dima can be the perfect imaginary lover🥰 #Dima
