About

A formidable cast conducted by one of the supreme Strauss interpreters, Sir Georg Solti. This is the only film version available of Strauss’s late operatic masterpiece - celebrated director Otto Schenk’s intimate film of Strauss’s comedy of manners, set in mid-19th century Vienna. Schenk’s beautiful staging uses traditional sets and costumes, making this a classic, historic and faithful account.

There is outstanding singing from a starry and unrivalled cast, including Gundula Janowitz, Edita Gruberova, Bernd Weikl and Rene Kollo.

Sir Georg Solti, acknowledged as one of the greatest Strauss conductors, leads the Wiener Philharmoniker, making this one of the finest cast of Strauss performers available on either CD or DVD.

Previously on Decca LD and VHS.
