He was appointed chief conductor of the Dresden Staatskapelle (State Orchestra) in 1985. The Dresden Orchestra is the oldest symphony in the world and is one of the most prestigious appointments in Europe, having been occupied in the past by such starts as Heinrich Schütz, Richard Wagner, Karl Böhm, Rudolf Kempe, and Fritz Busch. While in that position, Vonk also was engaged as the head of the Dresden State Opera, the first time these two historic directorships have been held by the same musician since Böhm. Vonk led the Opera in the historic opening of the new Semper Opera in Dresden in 1985, playing Richard Strauss' Der Rosenkavalier. The live recording of that event was widely praised, many critics ranking it as a recording as equal or even greater than the classic EMI set with Karajan and a cast headed by Schwarzkopf.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41018514112609,"sku":"0081759001005","price":18.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_11005093_12104.jpg?v=1719390386","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/0081759001005-des-rosenkavalier-highlights","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
