Harding & Strauss’ An Alpine Symphony
Robert Schumann claimed never to have spent as much energy and care on his music as he did on his evocative incidental music for Manfred, based on Lord Byron’s dramatic poem. Brahms was impressed and named it Schumann’s best work. Another evocative piece of music is Schumann’s Nachtlied for choir and orchestra, composed in just a week. The finale consists of Richard Strauss’ majestic An Alpine Symphony – impressions from “a day’s walk” in the mountains.
