Richard Strauss, Also Sprach Zarathustra, Op. 30 (1896) Also sprach Zarathustra, which offers mankind "not the Joy of Life (for there is no such thing), but the Fullness of Life, in the joy of the senses, in the triumphant exuberance of vitality," is a work of the imagination. It's true also that the seed of one element in Nazism can be traced in Nietzsche's radical rejection of the Christian ethos—of mercy and compassion, and the exaltation of the meek—in favor of a hard-edged, clear-eyed, ecstatically arrogant confrontation of the mysteries of the universe. When Zarathustra was thirty years old, he left his home and the lake of his home, and went into the mountains. www.americansymphony.org /dialogues_extensions/99_2000season/2000_03_08/strauss.cfm   (1029 words)

Saint Louis Symphony Friedrich Nietzsche’s Also sprach Zarathustra (Thus spake Zarathustra) would seem an unlikely work on which to base a musical composition. Richard Strauss was born on June 11, 1864, in Munich; he died on September 8, 1949, at his villa in the Bavarian town of Garmish-Partenkirchen. Putting this theory into practice, Strauss proceeded to use literary programs as the basis for a number of tone poems he composed in the late 1880s and throughout the 1890s. www.slso.org /0203notes/sub11.htm   (2390 words)

Classical Net - Basic Repertoire List - Richard Strauss Strauss began to compose at an early age in an idiom which owed much to Robert Schumann. Strauss became a whipping-boy for modernist critics, who regarded him as a moss-back and failed to discern how he led to modernism. During this period as well, Strauss became an official of the Third Reich, although his job was largely ceremonial, and he considered most of the powerful Nazis Philistines and barbarians. www.classical.net /music/comp.lst/straussr.html   (985 words)

Richard Strauss + Ben Jonson Also Sprach Zarathustra (1896) was based on the work of the notoriously skeptical Friedrich Nietzsche. It was on this date, June 11, 1864, that German composer Richard Strauss was born in Munich, Bavaria, the son of an orchestral horn player.
