Richard
Strauss (1864-1949)
originally wrote this
work for solo piano and
orchestra under the title
Scherzo in D minor in
1886 for conductor and
pianist Hans von
Bülow, a large
influence on Strauss'
career. Von Bülow,
however, consider the
work a complicated piece
of nonsense and wanted
nothing to do it.
Discouraged, Strauss set
the work aside until
1889, when he met
Scottish pianist Eugen
d'Albert, who liked it
while also suggesting
some changes. With a new
title, Burleske, and a
dedication to d'Albert,
the work was premiered on
June 21st, 1890 in
Eisenach at the
Tonkünstlerfest with
d'Albert at the piano and
Strauss conducting.
Despite this, Strauss
remained convinced that
the work lacked merit and
refused to have the work
published until 1894,
although it eventually
became one of his
favorite works. Strauss
never gave the work an
opus number, but many
consider it to be Op. 11,
which is actually
assigned to his Horn
Concerto No. 1 in E-flat.
