Bibliothèque-Musée de l'Opéra National de Paris
“Born in Zurich in 1910, died in Paris in 1999, Rolf Liebermann was one of the major musical figures of the 20th century. Composer, conductor, director, he successively directed the Hamburg Opera (1959-1972) and Paris Opera (1973-1980). At the Palais Garnier, his name is attached, among others, to The Marriage of Figaro in the production by Giorgio Strehler (production resumed this season) or to the world premiere of the three-act version of Lulu directed by Pierre Boulez.
On the occasion of the centenary of his birth, the Hamburg Staatsoper is joining forces with the Opera Library-Museum and the Paris Opera to pay tribute to this exceptional personality.” - via Wikimedia Commons (original description translated from French using Google Translate)
