About

In this compilation all recordings of the symphonic poems by Richard Strauss are combined with the Frankfurt Opera and Museum Orchestra under the General Music Director Sebastian Weigle. The orchestra has been awarded several times by the “Opernwelt” as Orchestra of the Year. Sebastian Weigle has been General Music Director since 2008/09. ‘...exceptionally vivid and detailed sound, which makes everything in these elaborately scored and contrapuntally dense works fully audible.’ (AllMusic.com on Vol. 6) ‘Weigle’s performances here are not only musically thrilling—both dynamically, and in regard to his color palette, his sense of voicing, and overall pacing—but thoroughly enjoyable to listen to on these transitionary days of early spring.’ (Fanfare on Vol. 5)

-----

Excerpts from select reviews of previously released volumes include in this set:

Strauss: Also sprach Zarathustra & Don Quixote / Weigle

Sebastian Weigle secures a finely prepared, keenly purposeful and (above all) intensely musical account of Also sprach Zarathustra.

– Classical Ear

Strauss: Ein Heldenleben; Macbeth / Weigle

First impressions of this Heldenleben are highly favorable. Ingo de Haas is a generous, full-toned soloist in 'The Hero's Companion', but he's never cloying. Strauss performances don’t come more seamless and authoritative than this.

– MusicWeb International

Strauss: Eine Alpensinfonie / Weigle

Weigle’s Alpine Symphony performance is defined by a wonderful lyrical generosity, complete control of the work’s 50-minute span, and orchestral playing in which every note seems to reflect the drama that is being played out. Highly recommended

– Gramophone
