Kleiber’s own musical voice, however, differed markedly, favoring a more organic approach to the orchestration over the sharper angularity associated with his father’s interpretations. Though the organization of Berg’s tone rows can at times suggest an academic rigor, Kleiber inspires the players to shape them with an almost extemporaneous quality, at moments recalling the flexibility and spontaneity of jazz more than conventional twentieth-century classical performance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this performance of \u003ci\u003eWozzeck\u003c\/i\u003e, the result is an interpretation that counterbalances the weight of both the drama and the score with a playfulness that acts as a kind of palate cleanser. \u003cb\u003eTheo Adam\u003c\/b\u003e brings to the title role a sense of stoic suffering and quiet nobility, qualities that underscore the opera’s underlying observations about class within a rigidly hierarchical world. \u003cb\u003eWendy Fine\u003c\/b\u003e’s Marie is overwhelming in its intensity, conveying a character burdened by trauma and despair.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003chr class=\"mobile-only-hr\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- Right Column: Cast and Details --\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"section-heading\"\u003eCAST\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e Wozzeck – \u003cstrong\u003eTheo Adam\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Tambourmajor – \u003cstrong\u003eFritz Uhl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Andres – \u003cstrong\u003eGeorg Paskuda\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Hauptmann – \u003cstrong\u003eFriedrich Lenz\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Doktor – \u003cstrong\u003eMax Pröbstl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Narr – \u003cstrong\u003eKarl Hoppe\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Marie – \u003cstrong\u003eWendy Fine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Margret – \u003cstrong\u003eGudrun Wewezow\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.
