Die Festschrift zum 65. Geburtstag von Peter Revers ehrt eine der wichtigsten Persönlichkeiten der österreichischen Musikwissenschaft der Gegenwart. Seit fast vier Jahrzehnten prägt er auch international das Fach Musikwissenschaft in Vorträgen und Publikationen, durch Symposien und Forschungsprojekte, als Lehrer und Gutachter. Mit dem Thema "Musik im Zusammenhang" ist ein wesentliches Charakteristikum von Revers' Arbeit gefasst. Sein pluraler wissenschaftlicher Ansatz vermag Zusammenhänge in differenzierter Weise sichtbar zu machen - zwischen Musikformen und -gattungen genauso wie zwischen Musik und gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen. Dies spiegelt sich auch in den 52 Beiträgen des Bandes, die sich vielfältig auf die Forschungen des Geehrten beziehen, so u. a. auf die Musik W. A. Mozarts und Gustav Mahlers, auf die Musikgeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts und die Interpretationsforschung.

Richard Strauss, Herbert von Karajan und HiFi-Stereo sind eine himmlische Kombination. Die opulenten Klangflächen der Orchester- und Opernwerke des Komponisten standen im Mittelpunkt der Karriere des in Salzburg geborenen Dirigenten, sowohl was seine Aktivitäten auf der Bühne als auch jene im Aufnahmestudio betrifft. Die Aufsätze dieses Bandes setzen sich kritisch mit dieser facettenreichen aber komplizierten Beziehung auseinander und versuchen, das Vermächtnis seines Klangmaterials ebenso materialgeschichtlich wie auch durch den "Performance-turn" zu erfassen. Strauss "auf Platte" eröffnet neue Wege für die Erforschung dieses musikalischen Gespanns mit Kultstatus. Richard Strauss, Herbert von Karajan and hi-fi stereo are a match made in heaven. The opulent sonic canvases of the composer's orchestral and operatic works featured centrally in the Salzburg-born conductor's career on the stage and in the recording studio. The essays collected here critically examine this problematic relationship and seek to frame Strauss's acoustic legacy in terms of both material history and performance studies. Strauss "on the record" opens up new avenues for research into one of the most iconic parings of twentieth-century music.

Richard Strauss is an outlier in the context of twentieth century music. Some consider him a composer of the late romantic period, while others declare him a traitor of modernity for his role in National Socialism. Despite the controversy surrounding him, Strauss's works--even beyond his most well-known operas Elektra and Rosenkavalier--are present in the repertories of concert halls worldwide and continue to enjoy large audiences. The details of the composer's life, however, remain shrouded in mystery and gossip. Laurenz Lütteken's Strauss presents a fresh approach to understanding this elusive composer's life and works. Dispensing with stereotypes and sensationalism, it reveals Strauss to be a sensitive intellectual and representative of modernity, with all light and shade of the turn of the twentieth century.

Richard Strauss's tone poem Also sprach Zarathustra is one of his most controversial works. Its greatest popularity has been achieved when its connection with Nietzsche's book of the same name has seemed less relevant than its associations with Kubrick's film 2001 - A Space Odyssey. Although its early critical reception was mixed, it is nowadays one of the staples of the virtuoso orchestra, and a standard demonstration piece for innovations in recording technique. Its opening bars have become a kind of icon independent of the rest of the work. This guide examines the intellectual background of the work and considers ways in which it has been received by composers and writers, notably Romain Rolland and Bartok. It also discusses the musical background of Liszt and Wagner which gave rise to the genre, 'tone poem', and provides an analysis of several aspects of Strauss's musical language.
