Programme Note
A young marksman finds himself in league with the devil as he attempts to win his girlfriend’s hand in marriage. Based on a popular German fable and rarely performed in the UK, this opera has it all – a struggle between good and evil, the supernatural, and of course, romance.
Random Opera Company's cast of professional artists bring this magnificent work to the stage, under the direction of Random Opera's Artistic Director, Richard Tegid Jones, and Musical Director Ashley Beauchamp. Hailed as marking the birth of German Romantic opera and inspiring Wagner, Der Freischütz is an ambitious opener to Random Opera's 2022 season.
This work is presented in the original German language, with English Subtitles.
