Beginning with two rascally characters, the deluded Don Quixote and the prankster Till Eulenspiegel, this set includes remarkable recordings from the catalogues of Philips and Deutsche Grammophon with some recordings appearing on CD internationally for the first time – Haitink’s ‘Don Quixote’, Jochum’s blazing ‘Till Eulenspiegel’, shimmering Rosenkavalier Waltzes (both sets) and Munchinger’s recording of the sextet from Capriccio. Sinopoli’s ‘Metamorphosen’, previously coupled with Bruckner’s Eighth symphony and long unavailable, finds its rightful place in this Strauss collection. In addition to the Rosenkavalier and Capriccio moments, we have other orchestral music from Strauss’ operas, all conducted by Sinopoli, concluding with one of the most exciting and thrillingly-recorded versions of the Dance of the Seven Veils.
Haitink’s airy account of Don Quixote [is] noble and visionary…Jochum leads this great Dutch ensemble in a witty and furtive version of Till Eulenspiegel as well as fiery and eloquent ones of the two Waltz Sequences from Der Rosenkavalier…a particularly moving account of Metamorphosen’ Classical Source.com
‘seriously impressive: eloquent and with a strong sense of trajectory [Metamorphosen] … a lovely reading [Don Quixote] … so affectionately and so beautifully played’ International Record Review
