A quartet as soloist! Experience the renowned Raschèr Saxophone Quartet as soloist with Tristan Keuris' colorful Concerto, which also gave the composer the feeling of a transcription of an organ symphony for orchestra, and the BADISCHEN STAATSKAPELLE under the direction of Georg Fritzsch. Equally agile and espressive, Strauss set (his) married life to music in the Sinfonia Domestica in a kind of self-portrait with an infinite variety of themes and melodies. Franz Liszt also mystically and skillfully combined various instruments and themes in his much too rarely performed symphonic poem Orpheus, creating a song of praise to the power of music. Richard Wagner also described Liszt's symphonic poems as a "new art form of instrumental music".
