Carl Maria von Weber: Der Freischütz

In their production of “Der Freischütz,” created to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the opera’s premiere at the Konzerthaus as well as the 200th anniversary of the concert hall itself, La Fura dels Baus, internationally acclaimed for its avant-garde opera, created a virtual forest in which the cast of amazing soloists as well as the choir performed with the Konzerthausorchester under music director Christoph Eschenbach. Without any audience present, the Great Hall of the Konzert haus was thus transformed into a myth-filled installation – a 360-degree experience for all the senses.
