Don Juan and Till Eulenspiegel are orchestral tone poems by Richard Strauss, composed in 1888 and 1895 respectively. Both pieces display Strauss's advancing mastery of orchestration and programme-driven narrative, with Don Juan built around rhapsodic, heroic gestures and Till Eulenspiegel using playful, mischievous motifs and vivid instrumental characterisation, and they mark important steps in his development as a composer of late-Romantic tone poems.
