R. Strauss’s Ein<br />
Heldenleben (4/15/15)<br />
Ein Heldenleben (A Hero’s<br />
Life) is a sumptuously scored<br />
tone poem that tells the story<br />
of a great man’s life. While<br />
Strauss never called the work<br />
autobiographical, passages in it<br />
allude to his great tone poems<br />
Also sprach Zarathustra and<br />
Don Juan. Its most famous<br />
episode depicts the hero’s<br />
battle with his critics, set to<br />
bravura music that influenced<br />
Hollywood composers from<br />
Korngold to John Williams.<br />
Critics responded harshly to<br />
the work at its premiere, but<br />
Ein Heldenleben has become a<br />
repertoire classic.<br />

Have you heard?<br />
Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons (11/18/14)<br />
In his day, Vivaldi, an ordained cleric, was known as the<br />
“Red Priest” because of his striking red hair. But it’s his violin<br />
virtuosity and the hundreds of concertos he composed for<br />
the instrument that have earned him his place in music history.<br />
The Four Seasons, his most beloved work, is a masterful<br />
example of Baroque program music in which the composer<br />
paints vivid depictions of bird song, bagpipes, thunderstorms,<br />
and drunken peasants.<br />
