A prolific composer of symphonic and chamber music, Ludwig van Beethoven only created one opera over the course of his entire career. Nevertheless, his Fidelio includes much of the stirring music for which he is famous. Anja Kampe is Leonore, the faithful wife determined to stop at nothing to free her husband Florestan (Brandon Jovanovich), unjustly imprisoned by his political enemy, Don Pizarro (Jochen Schmeckenbecher). Christof Fischesser is Rocco, the jailor caught between conscience and duty. Conductor Axel Kober is on the podium for this uplifting tale of the triumph of love over unjust oppression.
