Giuseppe Verdi
Ballet music from the Opera «Macbeth»

Richard Strauss
«Till Eulenspiegels lustige Streiche» Tone poem op. 28

Verdi’s «Macbeth» is a cosmos of intrigue; Bartók’s «The Miraculous Mandarin» picks apart the «ugliness of the civilized world», whose rules are anathema to Richard Strauss’ Till Eulenspiegel. The beauty of this youthful Horn Concerto, composed when Strauss was just eighteen, is brought to life.
