Erich Leinsdorf conducts the Berlin Statskapelle in this live recording from the internationally renowned Richard Strauss Festival inGarmich-Partenkirchen, Germany.The works presented here, Don Juan op. 20, and Ein Heldenleben op. 40, are among the finest of Strauss' symphonic poems, and his orchestral songs in Holerlin Hymnen Op. 71 feature soloist Sabine Hass in a moving performance.The Berlin Statskapelle is one of the oldest orchestras in the world, and has held performances for over 400 years.Richard Strauss himself led this orchestra in 1898.No other orchestra is so closely associated with the works of Strauss and few conductors match Erich Leinsdorf's intimacy with Strauss' music.
