Capriccio Opera Tickets

Enjoy an evening of fine opera by purchasing your Capriccio tickets now. Known for his outstanding operas, Strauss’s Capriccio is a performance that lovers of opera won’t want to miss. Richard Strauss’s final opera, Capriccio: A Conversation Piece for Music, premiered in 1942 in Munich. The libretto was written both by the composer himself and Clemens Strauss. It is an anomaly in the genre of opera because of the heavy use of text over more sung dialogue. Originally, the opera was presented in a single act, lasting more than two hours, and this styling has somewhat hindered Capriccio from being a widely performed work. Influenced by Wagner’s great operas and Liszt’s tone poem style, Strauss’s score for Capriccio is filled with the luscious sounds of Romantic era orchestral music. Additionally, his skill in writing for a variety of voices brings this dramatic storyline to life on stage through tone and melody.

Opera buffs will surely relish in Strauss’s powerful and exquisite composition. Secure your Capriccio tickets today and enjoy this great opera performed live on stage. The story of Capriccio involves Countess Madeleine as she attempts to choose between two suitors: one, a poet, and the second, a composer. At the heart of the text is ultimately the question of whether poetry or music is the greater art. Leaving the audience contemplative and wondering, Capriccio displays the beauty of both art forms in one elegant stage production. Lovers of great opera will not want to miss the opportunity to see Capriccio live on stage.
