‘Conversational opera’ chez Strauss
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 January 2016
Extract
Richard Strauss is widely believed to have explored, and perhaps to have developed, a new line in ‘conversational opera’, from Intermezzo (1924) to his last opera Capriccio (1942) – with divergences from the path, admittedly, along the way. Yet lengthy consideration has made me conclude that there was never any such path, nor that Strauss ever tried to follow one.
