A musical drama about love, freedom and responsibility. This 1994 production is based upon Henze's 1992 revised version of the opera.

With Wolfgang Sawallisch as musical director, Nikolaus Lehnhoff as director, and Gottfried Pilz in charge of stage and costume design it is not surprising that the enclosed live recording is a brilliant document of a highly celebrated opera production.
