Orf Vienna Radio Sym Orch - Carl Maria von Weber: Euryanthe

Even though music lovers are acquainted with Der Freisch�tz, the fewest are aware of Euryanthe. In the light of the musical quality of the opera, the disdain for it does not seem fitting. Euryanthe was Weber�s most ambitious project, one that anything but backfired. The composition may certainly be termed ground-breaking and truly deserves more attention. �A chain of glittering jewels from the beginning to the end. All witty and ingenious�, Robert Schumann in his critic about Euryanthe.
