Programme notes: additional text

Der Freischütz is a romantic opera in three acts by Carl Maria von Weber, op. 77. The libretto is by Johann Friedrich Kind. The libretto and the playbill of the premiere indicate Bohemia as the place and time of the action shortly after the end of the Thirty Years' War. The Elbe Sandstone Mountains may have played a role in the composer's concrete imagination; Weber, like other Romantic artists, may have been inspired by the wild rocky landscape of Saxon Switzerland, and the Wolfsschluchtszene (Wolf Gorge Scene) is perhaps conceivable near Rathen.
In the summer of 1810, Weber is said to have fallen into Neuburg Abbey's hands with "The Ghost Book". Von Weber and his friend Alexander von Dusch are said to have quickly agreed that the Freischütz story was well suited as a text for an opera. It was not until 1817 that Weber, now in Dresden, took up this idea again with Johann Friedrich Kind. It was then first designed under the title "Die Jägerbraut". After the first works in 1817, the Bauernwalzer and the aria "Durch die Wälder durch die Auen", completed on 22 April 1818, were created. The Freischütz was premiered on 18 June 1821 in the Königliches Schauspielhaus Berlin with triumphal success.
