The great capital of classical music, Dresden is one of the most beautiful cities in Germany, as evidenced by its inclusion on the UNESCO world heritage list. Thanks to its magnificent Zwinger Palace, its museums (one of which contains Raphael's star angels), not forgetting the Residenzschloss and Pillnitz castles and magnificent churches, cultural life is dense... As for the symbol of the city, the Semperoper , it is included on the list of the best opera halls in the world!
Thanks to the city's glorious past (which hosted Schütz, Weber, the Schumanns, Wagner, etc.), classical music can be experienced in Dresden as during this stay tailor-made for lovers of Richard Strauss. Two operas are on the program, the intense Elektra (created right here at the Semperoper) and the sublime Die Frau ohne Schatten. And as the Easter weekend often rhymes with Bach, the famous conductor Hans-Christoph Rademann will bring his divine music to the Kulturpalast.
