Taken from the old RIAS archives in Berlin, this monographic record is dedicated to some pieces by Richard Strauss which are not (with the exception of Till Eulenspiegel) among his better-known works. We begin with Burleske for piano and orchestra, played here by the Swiss pianist Margit Weber, who mainly dealt with the music of her day, performing works written for her by Stravinsky (Movements for Piano and Orchestra ), Martinů and Tcherepnin. The Oboe Concerto and the Duet-Concertino are two later works, and among the composer's most tender works, written during Strauss's exile to Switzerland, following a too-close encounter with the Nazi regime.
We are thrilled to find the whole lot conducted by the great Ferenc Fricsay, who passed away too young, and who made the Berlin RIAS Orchestra (the radio orchestra for the American sector) one of the great German ensembles. Fricsay's career took off internationally following the end of the war, when he performed Gottfried von Einem's La Mort de Danton at the Salzburg Festival in 1947. The following year, he conducted the first stage performance of Frank Martin's Vin Herbé, and then Antigone by Carl Orff in 1949. At the start of the following decade, he started to make records for Deutsche Grammophon, some of which would become legendary, like Tchaikovsky's "Pathétique" Symphony; the Symphony "From the New World" by Dvořák; Háry János by Kodály; Bartók's Piano Concertos and Mozart's too, withGéza Anda; the Mass in C Minor and The Magic Flute by Mozart, the latter two being the composers with whom he is most often associated, even if his repertoire is much broader and very much concerned with the music of his day. © François Hudry/Qobuz
