Della Casa, a famous Marschallin in her own right, does her first Octavian with the Met in this series of performances. It’s not quite an ideal fit even if very starry. Schwarzkopf was certainly the most famous postwar Marschallin and is here in one of her only 2 Met broadcast appearances– the latter an unintentional Met farewell in a most unsatisfactory Donna Elvira 2 years later.”
