Interview
Daniel Harding in conversation with Jonathan Kelly
Daniel Harding and Gerald Finley with works by Schubert and Strauss
Richard Strauss was not only a master of orchestration but an enthusiastic mountaineer as well. Thus, it is not surprising that in his last symphonic poem he depicted a hike in the Alps – vivid and haunting, with an endless palette of tonal colours. Conductor Daniel Harding and bass-baritone Gerald Finley also present familiar Schubert songs in rarely heard orchestral arrangements by Berlioz, Brahms and Reger.
