Also sprach Zarathustra

Album by Richard Strauss & Michel Schwalbé & Berliner Philharmoniker & Herbert von Karajan

Also sprach Zarathustra is a tone poem by German composer Richard Strauss, composed in 1896. The work exemplifies Strauss's late-Romantic orchestral language and programme-music approach, employing expansive orchestration and prominent brass writing, and its opening fanfare has become widely recognised; it helped establish his reputation in large-scale orchestral tone poems.
