Santtu Conducts Strauss - Don Juan, Eine Alpensinfonie, Also Sprach Zarathustra & Till Eulenspiegels lustige Streiche

In 2023 the Philharmonia will release their first album under the new brand and own label: Philharmonia Records. Santtu conducts Strauss is a 2-CD album with four works by Richard Strauss conducted by Principal Conductor Santtu-Matias Rouvali, two of which are live recordings of Santtu’s 2021/22 opening concert and first concert as Principal Conductor at Royal Festival Hall. This start of a new era for the Orchestra is a central story of this album. The long recording legacy and historical connection to Richard Strauss, however, are not disregarded: with four essays, an extensive booklet explores the Philharmonia, Santtu, the music and looks into the future of this close relationship between Orchestra and their new Principal Conductor.
