Meagan Miller was great: young, charming, beautiful, elegant and most subtle singing actress, and a voice of full, warm, rich color, pulsating eroticism.... The premiere cast was worthy of the worlds largest stages. Very often the dominant figure becomes the Marschallin, because it is one of the most beautiful portraits of women throughout the opera literature. She expresses all the wisdom, which this opera hold for us. This young woman (Strauss insisted that she should be no more than a little over thirty years), feels painfully the passage of time, and is aware of the consequences. Her affair with the 17-year-old Earl of Rofrano is probably not the first, nor the last. But she is in love and she loves him so much that she can even love his love for another, younger, but not necessarily more beautiful. In the same way, she can inadvertently or perhaps challenging fate sends him as a bringer of love with the silver rose, ushering in the course of events, over which she has no influence. But she is able accept the fate, accepting what life brings - as she says at one point - lightly and with a light heart. Meagan Miller was great: young, charming, beautiful, elegant and most subtle singing actress, and a voice of full, warm, rich color, pulsating eroticism. -Translated excerpt from opera.info.pl/index.php/recenzje-piotra-nedzynskiego/2161-kawaler-srebrnej-rozy-premiera-w-operze-wroclawskiej
