'“The greatest musical figure who has lived in this century.” Glenn Gould on Richard Strauss, 1962
• Rare and much-sought works by Richard Strauss
• All the repertoire originates from the prize-winning series “Der unbekannte Strauss” originally released on the Koch label. These recordings have long been deleted and are now available as a single edition
• Includes also the famous play Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme with Peter Ustinov and the popular Rosenkavalier waltzes
• Conducted by the dedicated Straussian Karl Anton Rickenbacher
• Performed by orchestras closely related to Strauss interpretation and cultivating the sound essential for his rich scores: the Wilde Gung’l orchestra from Munich (R. Strauss was a member of this orchestra for years), the Munich-based Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, and the Bamberger Symphoniker
