Strauss’s revision (in 1883) may be masterly, but his first try is impressive. In this persuasive performance by Raphaela Gromes and Julian Riem, the early work bursts into irrepressible life…There are moments in the first version one wouldn’t be without…Beautifully detailed performances combine with a powerful sense of music cherished. Recommended.
