The greatest and most popular German composer of the twentieth
century, Richard Strauss (1864 -- 1949) remains one of the most
controversial figures in the history of music. Though he is now
accepted as one of the finest of all orchestral composers, and his
operas are the most subtly characterized since Mozart's, his
reputation remains dogged by charges of sensationalism, careerist
opportunism and Nazi collaboration. This powerful study places
Strauss's life in the context of German history, reveals the
paradoxes that lay beneath his flamboyant public persona and
discusses his work in the light of the influences -- personal,
artistic, literary and political -- that shaped it.
