Notes and Editorial Reviews

Karl Böhm leads the Vienna Philharmonic in an all-Strauss program featuring Tod und Verklärung, Burleske for Piano and Orchestra (with Nikita Magaloff, piano), and the monumental Ein Heldenleben (with Willi Boskovsky, violin solo). Böhm was a personal friend of Richard Strauss and conducted the premiere of two of his operas, Die Schweigsame Frau and Daphne. This release is part of VAI’s ongoing series of Vienna Philharmonic concert DVDs featuring preeminent conductors such as Böhm, Sir Georg Solti, George Szell, and others.
