JXAZeu - you don't have to be Austrian to love Dick Strauss's "Der Rosenkavalier" but it helps. The legendary Schwarzkopf.

From here on is a silver orgasm, musically. Karajan and Schwarzkopf do Dick Strauss's best opera in a perfect performance. No subtitles but so what - just listen. This one is for Peter Gluck.
