Richard Strauss's last completed tone poem is regarded as the pinnacle of his art of orchestration: Now I've finally learned to orchestrate, he himself is once supposed to have said about it after the dress rehearsal. The single-movement Alpine symphony that we know today ultimately evolved - over almost 15 years - from the original drafts of an artist's tragedy, titled Der Antichrist. Eine Alpensinfonie [The Antichrist. An Alpine Symphony] up to the stage of the last sketches. With unprecedented plasticity, the work showcases a (metaphysical?) mountain hike with stops in the forest, at the waterfall, on the alpine pasture and, of course, at the summit. Apropos alpine pastures: up to the score's fair copy stage, Strauss envisaged a high and a low alphorn for the section Auf der Alm [On the Alpine Pasture] and the well-known Dulioh theme, though for various reasons first detailed in our new Urtext edition, these exotic instruments did not find their way into the printed version. In the new edition, the editor, Nick Pfefferkorn, reproduces the alphorn passages in small print, also adding two alphorn parts to the performance material, besides evaluating the corrections made by Walter Seifert at Strauss's request.First Urtext edition since the first editionEvaluation of all available sources, including sketches and the score corrected by Walter Seifert Extensive preface on the work's compositional history and receptionDetailed Critical ReportFacsimile pages.

Watch and listen to the Chicago Symphony Brass in a world premiere recording of An Alpine Symphony arranged and conducted by music director Jay Friedman. The recording was made at a live concert benefit for the Symphony of Oak Park and River Forest. It also celebrated the career and retirement of Adolph “Bud†Herseth, who was principal trumpet of the Chicago Symphony for 53 years. Eine Alpensinfonie is a long symphonic poem in one movement describing a day of Alpine climbing. Mr. Friedman’s masterful scoring captures all of the virtuosity and beauty of the original orchestral version. This masterwork was scored for Michael Mulcahy and the brass of the Grand Teton Festival Orchestra and premiered in 1996 at the Grand Teton Music Festival, Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
