Der Freischütz is a German Romantic opera that tells the story of Max, a marksman who makes a pact with dark forces to win a shooting contest and secure his love, Agathe. Set in a mystical forest, the opera blends themes of love, good versus evil, and supernatural elements, with its dramatic and atmospheric music marking it as a cornerstone of German Romanticism. Von Weber's work paved the way for later operatic developments, influencing composers like Wagner.
Carl Maria Friedrich Ernst von Weber (1786-1826) was a German composer, conductor, pianist, guitarist and critic, one of the first significant composers of the Romantic school.
