Marlboro Music: Strauss
08/08/11 8:00AM
Richard Strauss sure loved his wind instruments. The indelible result of
being the son of an excellent Horn player? ...Probably. This morning's
Marlboro Month feature piece is the Strauss Serenade in Eb for 13 Winds,
in an exciting - breezy! - live performance from the 2009 Festival.
