Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Christmas musical your kids will love performing.

Richard Strauss turned his genius to opera at the turn of the
twentieth century, and this guide contains the texts and
introductions to his first two masterpieces in what was, for him, a
new genre. Despite obvious similarities - both operas consisting of
one act, centred upon one female title role - the works are quite
different in subject and treatment. Salome, based on Oscar Wilde's
notorious play, has a kaleidoscopic range of orchestral colour and
a lurid climax. Elektra, derived from the myths of the ancient
Greeks and the first collaboration between Strauss and
Hofmannsthal, is a study in neurosis, ripe for Jungian comparative
analysis. Contents: Richard Strauss and the Unveiling of 'Salome',
Paul Banks; Salome: Libretto by Hedwig Lachmann; Salome: English
translation by Tom Hammond; Hofmannsthal's 'Elektra': from Drama to
Libretto, Kenneth Segar; Elektra and the 'Elektra Complex',
Christopher Wintle; Elektra: Libretto by Hugo von Hofmannsthal;
Elektra: English translation by Anthony Hose; Strauss's Orchestra
in 'Salome' and 'Elektra', Jonathan Burton
Andris Nelsons conducts the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in this
collection featuring two performances of Strauss's works, 'Also
Sprach Zarathustra', recorded in 2013, and 'Till Eulenspiegel',
recorded in 2014.
Three important orchestral works, including very popular Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks, reproduced in full score from original editions. This volume and its companion volume make available for the first time in convenient, inexpensive editions all the important Strauss tone poems. Study score.
