SF SYMPHONY PLAYS R. STRAUSS’ DER ROSENKAVALIER

From the earliest days of 1911, Richard Strauss had a runaway hit with his opera Der Rosenkavalier. Filled with luxurious music and sentimental charm, its stunning orchestral textures quickly made the leap into the instrumental world where they’ve dazzled audiences ever since. Indulge your ears in this and Lalo’s zesty violin showpiece Symphonie espagnole with the young firebrand Ray Chen.
