This new and carefully edited standard work contains all records of Richard Strauss handed down from the years 1932-1949. Until shortly before his death, Strauss continuously wrote down anecdotes from musical life, but principally notes and small essays on his role as a composer and on the functionalization of his music theatre works - within music history, in the broad context of western cultural history and, not least, in political times in general.

Opernpublikum wie Fachwelt horchten auf, als Edita Gruberova 1976 an der Wiener Staatsoper die Zerbinetta in Richard Strauss' Ariadne auf Naxos sang, damit einen sensationellen Erfolg erzielte und ihren Durchbruch zur Weltspitze schaffte. Seitdem ist die in Bratislava geburtige Sangerin mit allen wichtigen Partien des Belcanto und des Koloraturfaches im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes hervorgetreten. Sie hat ihre Gesangskultur weitergefuhrt, ja perfektioniert, und es dennoch immer verstanden, zu einer beseelten Darstellung zu finden.In diesem Buch schildert Niel Rishoi nicht nur den Weg der Gruberova aus der slowakischen Provinz an die grossen Opernhauser der Welt, sondern vermag es auch, das Spezifische an ihrer Stimme und die Charakteristika ihrer Interpretationen, auch auf der Buhne, herauszustellen.Auf der CD sind Ausschnitte aus Arien und Liedern mit dieser aussergewohnlichen Sangerin zu horen.

If there was ever a composer in the modern era from whom instrumentalists would hanker for a sonata or concerto, Richard Strauss must be right up there. His wide-ranging orchestral and operatic creations bleed with gloriously idiomatic writing for every instrument, and yet only the piano, violin, clarinet (in tandem with the bassoon), oboe and horn can really claim to have bespoke solo works from the composer's seamlessly productive pen, and collectively they form only a small proportion of the composer's output. No mere transcription, this three-movement Sonata after Richard Strauss extends well beyond a redeployment of the composer's music to fit a new idiom, filling the gaping chasm of 'serious' late-Romantic recital material for trumpet players, to be performed in toto or as Drei Konzertstücke. Thomas Oehler and Jonathan Freeman-Attwood have drawn on a wide range of Strauss's works to create the new offering, including the Violin Sonata, Von den Hinterweltlern (Also sprach Zarathustra), the Serenade for Winds ('From an invalid's workshop') and Zerbinetta's Aria (Ariadne auf Naxos).
