About

This CD marks the beginning of a new recording cycle of the complete symphonic poems of Richard Strauss as performed by the SWR Sinfonieorchester Baden-Baden und Freiburg and their principal conductor, François-Xavier Roth.

Future volumes will be released during the coming years, at the rate of two CDs per year. In his first release with Hänssler Classic, of Mahler's 1st Symphony, the French conductor has already made it clear that he has both the strength as well as the sensitivity to build delicate orchestral colours – exactly what is necessary with Richard Strauss’ works. And with his orchestra, Roth has one of the best ensembles in Germany.
