More Info:

?As the Staatskapelle Berlin begins to look for it's next music director (only the fourth since 1955!), this release finds the band's own winds turning to Richard Strauss, who held the job some 110+ years ago. Together, they recorded their old chief conductors' complete music for winds, including rarities like the Sonatinas "From an Invalid's Workshop" and "The Happy Workshop" which Strauss dedicated to Mozart. Covering Strauss' very early and very late creative output, the four pieces (plus the Eulenspiegel arrangement), give a fascinating insight into the development of Strauss, a horn player's son.
