Revolutionising the symphonic poem, a genre known for depicting stories through music, Richard Strauss initially draws inspiration from literary and philosophical sources. His works transcended traditional storytelling. Don Juan (1889) marked a pivotal moment, as Strauss shifted from a classical style to a bold, modernist vision. In Ein Heldenleben, Debussy's praise of its 'cinematography' highlights Strauss' ability to capture universal struggles through intricate orchestration. This CD showcases his mastery, inviting you to experience the profound emotional depth and innovative approach that define his legacy.
