This unique production of Carl Maria von Weber's 'Der Freischütz' was created to celebrate both the piece's 200th premiere anniversary at Konzerthaus Berlin and the 200th anniversary of the famed concert hall itself. For this production, Catalan theatre group La Fura dels Baus - internationally acclaimed for its avant-garde opera - created a virtual forest in the Konzerthaus' Great Hall, delivering a thrilling new interpretation of Von Weber's Romantic opera. Stage director Carlus Padrissa calls this 2021 production a "journey to the roots of opera, where myth, history and the current reality of the forest meet". Christoph Eschenbach conducts Konzerthausorchester Berlin and Rundfunkchor Berlin. Among the soloists are Jeanine De Bique (Agathe), Anna Prohaska (Ännchen), Benjamin Bruns (Max), Falk Struckmann (Kaspar), Franz Hawlata (Kuno), and Viktor Rud (Kilian). This performance was recorded on June 18, 2021.
