A Viennese take on romance’s highs and lows, with waltzes, two young lovers and, of course, an obstacle blocking their hopes for happiness. Don’t miss Carol Vaness’s first-ever Marschallin and music so richly descriptive that you can actually hear the stars in the young lovers’ eyes.

Four hours, 20 minutes,
including 2 intermissions
