Franz Welser-Möst Taking Over Zubin Mehta's 'Der Rosenkavalier' at Salzburg
Suffice it to say that Q4 of 2013 hasn't been too kind to, quote, "one of the greatest global living Indians." For starters, Zubin Mehta made a mess of things with Bavaria in Kashmir. (Why there wasn't more of an outcry from the Bayerisches Staatsorchester back in Munich, at least feigning diplomatic disgust, is beyond me.) And now, there's another Teuton, Maestro Franz Welser-Möst, caught in the middle of Mehta's latest in Salzburg.
