Der Rosenkavalier is a comic opera by Richard Strauss, the famous German composer. This three act opera is inspired by Hugo von Hofmannsthal's German libretto. However, this opera is known to be an loose adaptation of Moliere's comedy Monsieur and the novel Les amours du chevalier de Faublas by Louvet de Couvrai.
Der Rosenkavalier is the fifth opera of Richard Strauss. Strauss and his librettist Hofmannsthal hotly debated it before composition. Strauss was working on a tragic sequel. Strauss intended to add another milestone to his series of tragic operas, Salome and Elektra. But eventually he came up with Der Rosenkavalier and settled the issue more tactfully with Holmannsthal.
After the terrifying spectacle of Elektra, Richard Strauss began working on his charming, comedic opera Der Rosenkavalier. With Der Rosenkavalier, Strauss's second major phase of his career began. In terms of immediate effect, Strauss's new phase gave him immense popularity. This phase continued for almost another forty years until 1949, the year of his death.
Show Biography - Der Rosenkavalier
There is a provocation in Der Rosenkavalier which can't be ignored. Strauss and Hugo von Hofmannsthal set the lead male character as a mezzo-soprano, thus making all the three romantic leads on stage women. Each lover is shown as possessing a "female" grace, but they are all characterized with great detail and that's why it emerges as having no gender basis. Strauss's works are always colored with gorgeous melodies. So, audiences get more of his music than anything else enjoying his opera.
From the diary of a certain Empress Maria Theresa, and from the 17th and 18th century playwrights, Hoffmansthall collected characters and scenarios. Moliere's plays also had a serious impact on Der Rosenkavalier as far as domestic social farces as well as class struggles in the story were concerned. And the music part was totally up to Richard Srauss. Strauss composed some of his most luxuriant music, endowed with some lovely ensemble pieces.
Der Rosenkavalier was completed in 1910, the year of Strauss's mother's death. To be true, Der Rosenkavalier became the operatic sensation of the year just after its first on stage performance. Apart from Der Rosencavalier, Richard Strauss produced many splendid works like Don Juan, Tod and Verklarung, Till Eulenspiegals lustige Streiche, Also Sprach Zarathustra, Don Quixote, Ein Heldenleben, Salome, Elektra, Der Burger als Edelmann, Josephslegende, Eine Alpensinfonie, Ariadne auf Naxos, Die Frau ohne Schatten, Caprricio, Metamorphosen, Duett-Cocertino, Symphonia domestica and many more. Strauss's final work Four Last Songs (1948) is a masterpiece of its own. In general, Strauss survived as a song-writer by individual songs. Everyone finds gems throughout his majestic artistic career, early through late.
For modernist critics, Strauss became a whipping-boy. Most of them regarded him as a moss-back and could not perceive how he led to modernism. To some extent this attitude persists. However, he still remains an iconic figure in the musical world. Strauss shone in two major areas: opera and tone poem. He carried the Romantic Lisztian tone and Wagnerian opera tradition into the twentieth century almost single-handedly.
