Gustavo Dudamel in conversation with Sarah Willis Gustavo Dudamel conducts Strauss and Barber
The Berliner Philharmoniker have a very special relationship with Richard Strauss. Not least, because the composer himself made guest conducting appearances with the orchestra over many years. In this recording, Gustavo Dudamel conducts two Strauss tone poems whose appeal lies in their fire and sophistication: Don Juan and Till Eulenspiegel. Plus there is Samuel Barber’s overwhelmingly poignant Adagio for Strings.
