The track listing can be found on the paper jacket of each disc. Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra. Richard Strauss was the composer chosen for the duo's next Beethoven recording project.As in the case of Beethoven, Zinman's interpretation is based on a careful and well-thought-out approach to the details of the textures, and he succeeds in shedding new light on the detailed vocal movements by carefully crafting the music with well-balanced sound for each voice part. The recording is also outstanding. The core sound, beautifully covered with moderate hall tones, successfully avoids the sluggishness that often accompanies large ensembles, while the resilient and solid bass sound makes the work a solid piece of music. The ensemble of the Tonhalle Orchestra also showcases the skills of its members and soloists, and Zinman's interpretation of this colorful masterpiece by R. Strauss is a masterful performance that sets itself apart from the traditional late-Romantic, heavy-handed, and overblown performances. Sony Music
