8. Philharmonic concert

Richard Strauss

Cr.: Dirk Rückschloß

This extraordinary gala programme focuses on the Munich composer Richard Strauss, who had a special connection to Saxony. It includes two of his early works as well as a late work and offers a fascinating overview of the development of his oeuvre - from his first, experimental steps to his late, masterful perfection. The evening's star guest, award-winning soprano Michaela Kaune, will ennoble the musical highlights of this programme with her voice and provide the audience with unforgettable moments.
