Der Rosenkavalier
Watching the opera was a very entertaining experience. The voices were harmonious, the orchestra produced beautiful music, and the singers added personality to their characters. This personality was nicely portrayed through their movements.
The lovers conveyed their feelings for each other in the first scene through body language. When the baron visits, his pompous air is portrayed by the way he walks and talks. Overall, the choreography brought the character of the actors to the surface. For those of us who could not see facial expressions, choreography was sufficient enough to convey the emotions and feelings of the characters.
