Franz Schrekerâs career was cut short by the events of 1933 in Germany but he achieved real fame with his operas, and the huge success of Der SchatzgrĂ€ber (âThe Treasure Hunterâ) in the 1920s was the high point of his career. In a complex and ultimately tragic tale of destructive greed, desire and toxic social hierarchy, the innkeeperâs daughter Els is forced to confront the consequences of her murderous intent in what conductor Marc Albrecht considers âa work of exceptional quality, concentration and significanceâ. Following the huge success of Korngoldâs Das Wunder der Heliane (Naxos DVD 2.110584â85 / Blu-ray NBD0083V), director Christof Loy continues his exploration of strong female characters and neglected 20th-century masterpieces with this highly acclaimed Deutsche Oper Berlin production.
