Richard Strauss: a bridge between two centuries

from Between the Barlines

Welcome Back to Between the Barlines! Today, we’re diving into the bold and sometimes controversial world of Richard Strauss. He was a composer who pushed late Romantic music to its expressive limits while standing on the threshold of modernism. Strauss was a master of orchestral color, psychological drama, and sonic spectacle, and his music spans three major genres: tone poems, opera, and art song.
