Summary of This Score
Richard Strauss - Eight Poems op. 10 brings together eight lieder composed in 1885 on texts by the poet Hermann von Gilm. This collection holds a special place in Strauss's vocal work: for the first time, the composer sets to music a coherent set of poems by a single author, conceived as an opus intended to be published and performed as a whole.
Beyond the best-known pieces, the interest of this group of lieder lies in the variety of moods and colors, while maintaining a strongly romantic thread: love, its impulses, doubts, and reminiscences. Here we find a young Strauss "in the making," consciously positioning himself within the great tradition of the German lied, from Schubert to Hugo Wolf, with expressive vocal writing and a piano partner, sometimes supportive, sometimes narrative.
This Urtext edition (G. Henle Verlag) is mainly based on the first edition published in 1887, which Strauss dedicated to the Bavarian Kammersänger Heinrich Vogl : a historical nod that reminds us these lieder are not reserved for female voices and fully deserve their place in today's singers' repertoire. The edition is prepared by Annette Oppermann, providing reliable and relevant work in the service of interpretation.
