The Bronx Opera closes our 51st mainstage season with Carl Maria von Weber’s rarely-performed tale of damnation andredemption, forgiveness and family, Der Freischütz.
This will be BxO’s fourth presentation of Freischütz, which and will be sung in English, accompanied by our outstanding orchestra. It is considered the first important German Romantic opera, especially in its national identity and stark emotionality.
The plot is based on the German folk legend of the Freischütz and many of its tunes were thought to be inspired by German folk music, but this is a common misconception.Its unearthly portrayal of the supernatural in the famous Wolf's Glen scene has been described as "the most expressive rendering of the gruesome that is to be found in a musical score
