The. We've heard the symphony in B minor number eight the unfinished. Played by the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and their every story. Next we'll hear the symphonic poem done one by Ricard Strauss.

The piece was begun in 1886 when Strauss was twenty two and was completed three years later. The score was inspired by a narrative poem by the Austrian poet Nikolaos lay now. Traditionally Don Juan has been portrayed as a debonair or a lecherous libertine. But the hero of laying out a poem is an idealist who is searching for perfection in love and for the ultimate meaning of womanhood. In the end he recognized the futility of a search. And repents in suicide. Strauss's music then reflects Don Juan as a tragic figure. A brilliant horn passages in Don Juan are sometimes called an announcement to the world that a new genius has appeared. Strauss's earlier works had been in the traditional romantic style modeled upon Brahms and Wagner. But after 1885 the composer turned to programmatic works after the pattern

of the Liszt tone caught. His first attempt. I was Italian was a failure. Macbeth his first real tone poem followed in 1887. But it was done one two years later that electrified the musical world. And now every quintile has returned to the stage and music hall to conduct the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra in the symphonic poem. Don Juan Opus 20 by Ricard Strauss. Ye ye. Ye eh. Eh eh. Eh
