Philharmonic Concert
Strauss
Half a century and major historical upheavals lie between the creation of these two works by Richard Strauss: In the tone poem Don Quixote (1897), the composer was inspired by Cervantes' famous chivalric novel to create a score full of illustrative effects. He created a no less artistic tone painting of a completely different kind with the Four Last Songs (1948), which are characterised entirely by the motif of farewell. The soloist will be the German soprano Hannah-Elisabeth Müller; General Music Director Gianandrea Noseda conducts the Philharmonia Zurich.
