Indian Summer in Times of War? Richard Strauss’ Last Opera.

Guest speaker from Germany Dörte Schmidt will present some work she is looking to expand. She investigates how Capriccio, Richard Strauss’ last opera can be read in its historical context. Capriccio was premiered in 1942 under the patronage of Joseph Goebbels.
