Notes & Reviews:

The Semper Opera caused a sensation in November 2007 when it visited Japan for the first time in twenty-six years. The demand for tickets and the audience's enthusiasm was unprecedented, not least because the company was staging a piece that is performed more authentically in Dresden than anywhere else in the world: Richard Strauss' 'Der Rosenkavalier', which received its first performance in Dresden in 1911. Leading the ensemble was the radiant-voiced and profoundly thoughtful Marshallin of Anne Schwanewilms, a singer described by 'The Independent' as "one of the greatest singers on the operatic stage today".
