Burleske for Piano and Orchestra fully displays the remarkable orchestral color and brilliant orchestration so characteristic of Strauss' later works. The German term Burleske translates as "farce," and it constitutes an apt description of this work which abounds in sly humor that lurks beneath an elegant veneer. Unabridged republication of the edition originally published by Steingräber Verlag, Leipzig, 1894.
Salome in Full Score by Richard Strauss A striking display of atmospheric color brought about by instrumental means, Salome was Strauss' first great operatic success, and now ranks among the basic works of 20th-century music-drama. Definitive Fürstner score, now extremely rare.
Eine Alpensinfonie and Symphonia Domestica in Full Score by Richard Strauss Two symphonic masterworks that employ vast orchestras offer a powerful portrayal of a day in the mountains and an intimate reflection of the composer's day-to-day life at home with his wife.
