| Richard Strauss: Arabella (Cambridge Opera Handbooks) - This is the first comprehensive guide to Richard Strauss's Arabella. The opening chapters explore the literary background of the work, and examine the Strauss-Hofmannsthal collaboration. Arabella is seen as the culmination of specific ideas and techniques: an attempt to win something of the subtlety of the spoken theatre for the operatic stage and to find a balance between words and music. A full synopsis of the work provides an insight into the psychological motivation of the drama and an impre... |

| Richard Strauss: Der Rosenkavalier - Another entry in the immortal catalogue of conductor Carlos Kleiber (1930-2004), a colossus among 20th-century musicians.

His legendary recording of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony has been called the greatest of all the countless versions recorded over the past hundred years. Likewise, his recording of Weber's Der Freischütz , called by some critics "the greatest opera recordi... |

While in mono and obviously not comparable to the range of Telarc's digital recording, it is, in fact, better balanced, and the advantage of an experienced opera conductor at the helm is incalculable ... Keilberth is remarkable ... Leonie Rysanek is heard here at near the beginning of her long career. She both confirms her reputation and enhances it some ... She is simply incomparable ...

| Richard Strauss: Man, Musician, Enigma - There are few composers whose critical stock has roller-coastered as dramatically as that of Richard Strauss, both during his lifetime and in the five decades since his death in 1949. Once considered a dangerous firebrand of the avant-garde--his early masterpiece Salome was given the equivalent of an X rating--Strauss remained an exceedingly prolific composer throughout his long career, yet lived to be "written off as an extinct volcano." The painful story of his involvement with the Third Reich... |

| Richard Strauss: Orchestra Works - "...Throughout the project there is no question that the Zurich Tonhalle Orcehstra play particularly well, while the Arte Nova engineers have produced an atmospheric acoustic and a suitably opulent sound quality." -MUSICWEB-INTERNATIONAL.COM "It takes a mighty fine orchestra to capture the full brilliance, never mind all the notes, in such big Richard Strauss epics as the resplendent Sinfonia Domestica...David Zinman and the Tonhalle Orchester Zurich deliver a beautifully poised performance.... |
