Description:
Immerse yourself in the sonic elegance of late Richard Strauss: The celebrated prelude to his final opera, "Capriccio" Op. 85, stands as one of the most expressive masterpieces ever written for string sextet. Characterized by peerless lyrical finesse, rich harmonies, and masterful counterpoint, this piece enchants performers and audiences alike. This edition from the renowned Strauss Edition Wien (Verlagsgruppe Hermann) is presented as a meticulously prepared set of parts for the standard sextet instrumentation of two violins, two violas, and two cellos. Whether for a sophisticated concert programme or chamber music at the highest level, this deeply moving prelude opens up a world of late-Romantic tonal splendour and emotional depth. An indispensable repertoire highlight for any ambitious string ensemble.
