About

He has the reputation of the last great Romantic and the last great story-teller in music history: Richard Strauss, who focused his genius mainly on opera and the tone poem.

With this selection of orchestral music from Strauss operas, Jeffrey Tate combines both sides – from the famous sextet from Capriccio through a fantasia from Die Frau ohne Schatten to a discovery from the composer's early period: the prelude to his first opera, Guntram, which remains a rarity to this day.
