STRAUSS  Don Quixote, Op. 35

Legendary pianist Glenn Gould hailed Berg’s darkly expressionist Piano Sonata as “among the most auspicious Opus Ones ever written.” Schumann’s Byron-inspired Overture to Manfred begins in gloom but soon rises to passionate energy. Plus, Richard Strauss’ musical portrayal of Cervantes’ sublime madman Don Quixote and his madcap adventures adds a rich vein of musical storytelling.
