Strauss, R.: Rosenkavalier (Der) Suite / Symphonic Fantasy On Die Frau Ohne Schatten / Symphonic Fragment From Josephs Legende - CD

ENGLISH

<p>To give renewed life to two of his less well known scores, the fantasy opera <i>Die Frau</i> <i>ohne Schatten </i>and the biblical ballet <i>Josephs-Legende</i>, Richard Strauss created symphonic memoires which preserved both their storylines and musical highlights. Following the phenomenal success of his &lsquo;comedy for music' <i>Der Rosenkavalier</i>, Strauss prepared an orchestral suite based on the florid waltzes of his most famous opera. The Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra under JoAnn Falletta has recorded several acclaimed discs for Naxos, including a double Grammy®-winning CD of John Corigliano's <i>Mr Tambourine Man </i>. </p>
