“The rendering of the 50-minute work, which is through-composed without any break, was another aural feast. The recent discovery of Strauss’s original intention to use alphorns in one passage is reflected in the new Breitkopf & Härtel critical edition used by Woods. The large instruments were placed in the balcony boxes, and their effect was astounding.”
