DER FREISCHÜTZ – DUEL BETWEEN BLACK AND WHITE
Opera by Carl Maria von Weber
Libretto by Johann Friedrich Kind

The hunter Kaspar bequeathed his soul to Samiel, the black hunter, in exchange for free bullets. Six of these bullets always hit, but the seventh supposedly belongs to the bad guy. Samiel's opponent is a good spirit, a somewhat clumsy guardian angel who pretends to be a hermit and has settled at the edge of the forest. From there he tries to be a kind of guardian spirit for the "eternal" and somewhat complicated lovers Max and Agathe. When they last met, he gave Agathe a bouquet of blessed white roses. Apparently the duel between black and white, heaven and hell, is about to reach its climax...
