Relative rarities among his output are Richard Strauss's concertos, many written later in his life. This collection brings together works for oboe, clarinet and bassoon (the Duet Concertino) and the scintillating Burleske for piano and orchestra. In addition to conducting the concertos, Ashkenazy also conducts the early tone poem "Aus Italien" and Maazel's humorous reading of Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme with the Vienna Philharmonic is restored to the catalogue.
