About this Performance
One of the most sought-after conductors of his generation, Swiss musician Philippe Jordan returns with two prime examples of tone poems by Richard Strauss, one about the legendary Spanish knight – featuring one of the world’s leading cellists as the irrepressible dreamer – and, though Strauss denied it, the other work about the composer himself!
