Carl Maria von Weber's romantic opera Der Freischütz (1821) is considered a milestone in German music history. This gripping story of love, fear, and dark forces captivates audiences to this day: Out of desperation, the young hunter Max enters into a devilish pact to win the hand of his beloved Agathe. But fate takes a dramatic turn...
With its rousing music, folk melodies, and the famous Wolf's Glen scene, the opera is a Romantic masterpiece. Austrian composer Andreas Simbeni has transposed this work into an impressive fantasy for symphonic wind orchestra.
