STRAUSS Also Sprach Zarathustra. Ein Heldenleben • Vasily Petrenko
STRAUSS Also sprach Zarathustra. Ein Heldenleben • Vasily Petrenko, cond; Oslo PO • LAWO 1166 (Streaming audio: 79:57) https://app.napster.com/artist/vasily-petrenko/album/richard-strauss-also- sprach-zarathustra-op-30-ein-helden Collectors of Richard Strauss’s tone poems can afford to be finicky, or even to turn their backs on upstart new recordings when we have Fritz Reiner, Rudolf Kempe, and Herbert von Karajan as enduring pillars of the Strauss discography—anytime I return to Reiner’s 1961 Don Juan with the Chicago Symphony, I feel that no greater recording is imaginable. But the call of these orchestral thrill rides never ceases, and in recent years desirable recordings have emerged from Christian Thielemann, Vladimir Jurowski, Manfred Honeck, and François-Xavier Roth. To them can now be added this superb new release from Vasily Petrenko and the Oslo Philharmonic. It’s something of a cheeky release, too, because the pairing of Also sprach Zarathustra and Ein Heldenleben mimics the very first recording, from 1954, that Reiner made in Chicago after assuming leadership of the CSO. The two Living Stereo LPs became a landmark in the postwar hi-fi era, achieving tremendous sales. Although Reiner’s remake of Zarathustra in 1962 is considered superior among collectors, no one would be without the 1954 version. You don’t have to feel guilty about betraying old allegiances, however, to appreciate the vibrancy and imagination that Petrenko brings to these two scores. It’s good news that this CD is the initial installment in a Strauss series from him and the Oslo orchestra. -

I couldn’t believe from the beginning of the first song it could possibly get any more ecstatic and full of emotion, and yet it did. It was a short step from there to Strauss opera for me, and with the birth of YouTube I sat until the early hours of many a morning in my tiny room at Edinburgh University, listening to, watching and obsessing over Der Rosenkavalier’s final trio and presentation of the rose. -

Danny Elfman's Violin Concerto
Danny Elfman’s Violin Concerto Friday, October 18 Today’s concert focuses not only on the renowned 10:30am concert music of Danny Elfman, but on a style of music that doesn’t tell a complete narrative. Rather, today’s selections paint a picture of a feeling, or an emotion, or a mysterious land- scape, by only using the power of music. Read on to find out more! Danny Elfman, American Composer (1953- ) Danny Elfman is an American composer most well known for his film music. He has composed music for film and TV such as The Simpsons, Men in Black, and Avengers: Age of Ultron. and has worked with pioneer- ing directors such as Tim Burton, Sam Raimi, Guillermo del Toro and Ang REPERTOIRE Lee. In 2004, Elfman began writing for the concert hall, such as Serenada Schizophrana (2005), Rabbit and Rogue (2008), and Eleven Eleven (2017).

It features lyrical melodies inspired by early 20th century music, as well as more modern rhythms and har- monies. The title comes from the measure count, which hap- pens to be exactly 1,111 meas- ures long. The piece was written in collaboration with violinist Sandy Cameron. -

Richard Strauss' Eine Alpensinfonie
Richard Strauss’ Eine Alpensinfonie: A Culmination and Rejection of Nineteenth Century Philosophical Influences Chloe Tula MUSI 551 Dr. Bailey November 18, 2016 !1 ABSTRACT The goal of this paper is two-fold: on one hand, exploring how Alpensinfonie both challenges and stays true to traditional symphonic idioms, and on the other, examining how it fits into Strauss’s compositional career, personal religious journey, and the greater landscape of early 20th century leanings towards modernism. This paper is part analysis, part biography, and part historical analysis. Strauss clearly had a unique (and changing) perspective on Friedrich Nietzsche’s writings, and this often drew sharp contradictions in his life; one can view evidence of how this plays into Alpensinfonie, especially when contrasted against Zarathustra (1896), which shares many motives with Alpensinfonie (which, coincidentally, was sketched out as early as 1899, before Strauss’s operatic career took off). While Un Alpensinfonie is not his definitive - and far from his final - work, it is an important landmark in Strauss’s ever-changing compositional perspective. In Un Alpensinfonie, Strauss overturns norms of the early twentieth century by constructing an intense, one-movement symphony that all but replaces lofty reverence of deity figures with a more universal reverence of nature, adding to the collection of earth- conscious masterpieces (e.g. Rite of Spring, La Mer, The Planets for instance) that inspired a irreversible large-scale shift to programmatic and agnostic-leaning music in the European modernist movement to follow. INTRODUCTION Richard Strauss’ final tone poem, Un Alpensinfonie (An Alpine Symphony) is largely overlooked in the analyses of his tone poems. -

But Fricsay and Richard Strauss? Hadn’t Fricsay, being the general music director of the Bayeri sche Staatsoper (Bavarian State Opera) in Munich from 1956 until 1958, just been accused of not providing enough support to the city’s great son, of having only once performed his works in concert, and not even a single opera? A glance at the list of existing sound documents from that time calls to atten- tion that the number of entries under the keyword “Strauß, Johann” exceeds by far the number of entries mentioning “Strauss, Richard”. -

His father, Franz Joseph, was principal French horn at the Bavarian Court Opera and a particular favourite (musically, at least) of Richard Wagner – although he detested both ‘the Master’ and his music. He nevertheless played in the premieres of four major Wagner operas, including the first two instalments of the Ring Cycle (Das Rheingold and Die Walküre). Although Franz was not the easiest of men, money was never a problem at home and music was everywhere, enabling the young Strauss to develop his almost supernatural talent in an entirely natural way. In this respect, his early development was closer to the wunderkind Mendelssohn’s than the ceaseless international parading of talent that Strauss’s beloved Mozart had to endure. Although he had piano and violin lessons from an early age, Strauss never became an instrumental virtuoso – his true destiny lay as a conductor and, most especially, a composer.
