The whole shooting match

Article Abstract:

Carl Maria von Weber's 'Der Freischutz' is an extremely attractive opera, according to Mark Elder, who has produced this opera at the Coliseum in London, England, in collaboration with David Pountney. He also greatly admires Weber's 'Euryanthe.' He believes that Weber is able to mould the music to the hearts and minds of the audience and that his sound is extremely theatrical. He feels that Pountney's new translation of Weber's spoken dialogue creatives a vibrant atmosphere.
