Etude for ensemble 23 string instruments

Strong group of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Conductor - Mr. Von Karaians

In 2004, BBC listeners called Adahio for stringed one of the "most sad works of classical music."

Grand Adagio for 23 String Tools is one of the most personal and felt creations in the extensive heritage of the composer. The direct reason for its creation was the tragic events of the last months of World War II, about which the German master wrote to her friend Y. Gregor: "I'm in the desperate mood! Destroyed house Goethe, this greatest shrine of the world! My beautiful Dresden is Weimar - Munich, everything went to the rush! " Strauss did not hide the program plan of the play, which became part of the Great Culture of Germany, the last representative of which the composer felt himself, and at the same time - a reflection of his own last life. In "Metamorphosis" of the motives of the sad note, which make up the basis of the composition, contain many musical alluzius - this is the topic of King Mark from the Wagner Tristan, and the topic of Mandrika - the hero "Arabella", the last opera of the Strauss, written in collaboration with the great playwright of Hugo Background Hoffmanstal . A peculiar Moto of the work is the theme of a mourning march from the heroic symphony of Beethoven, the most obvious holding of which the author supplies the words "in memoriam".

Richard Strauss and Gustav Maleter together are a sample of the style of late German romanticism after Richard Wagner. These composers threw to the emerging modernism, affecting expressionism (Arnold Schönberg and his closest associates - the second Viennese school)
