RICHARD STRAUSS
The Schwarzkopf Tapes
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf (soprano) & Glenn Gould (piano)
[ Sony Classics / CD ]
Release Date: Wednesday 10 October 2012
An extraordinary encounter: in January 1966 eminent soprano Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and eccentric pianist Glenn Gould met in an overheated New York studio to record songs by Richard Strauss. Two extreme worlds were bunched together and, as a result, the recording session was a spectacular failure. Contained on this CD are three previously released songs from this legendary meeting, three previously unreleased Strauss songs, as well as more music by the composer Gould valued so highly.
