Last night, Renee Fleming bid farewell to one of her signature roles at the Metropolitan Opera as she took her final bow in Der Rosenkavalier. The New York Times was live to capture the moment, and we have the video for you below!

Der Rosenkavalier opened at the Met on April 13th. In his new production, Robert Carsen, the director behind the Met's recent Falstaff, places the action at the end of the Habsburg Empire, underscoring the opera's subtext of class and conflict against a rich backdrop of gilt and red damask, in a staging that also stars Günther Groissböck as Baron Ochs. Sebastian Weigle conducts the sparklingly perfect score.
