Richard Strauss
Der Rosenkavalier: Orchestral Suite arranged by Franz Welser-Möst

Franz Schubert was only 18 years old when he composed his Third Symphony – a fresh, sparkling work that exudes romantic warmth and sensitivity. It opens a programme offering varying perspectives on Austrian music. Richard Strauss cleverly adapted Vienna’s waltz tradition in his opera Der Rosenkavalier; Franz Welser-Möst conducts the orchestral suite. The programme also features Bernd Richard Deutsch, an important Austrian composer of our time. His work Intensity is sonorous and poignant.
