The young Richard Strauss became famous in the 1880s and ’90s with orchestral showpieces that tell stories. He called them “tone poems”, and they remain among his best-loved, most-recorded works. But few recordings match the drama, energy or sonic spectacle of the three “poems” here, performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra under a Strauss-conductor of distinction, Manfred Honeck, as though their lives depended on it. It’s all there: the tragic intensity of <i>Don Juan</i>, the reflective grandeur of <i>Tod und Verklärung</i> (<i>Death and Transfiguration</i>), and the sheer mischief of <i>Till Eulenspiegel</i> are all delivered to standards Straussians dream about. The brass have true-American heroic heft and the horns and woodwind, spotlit in this repertoire, are stunning. The sound quality is superb.
