Richard Strauss: Elektra
Borkh Resnik Schuh
New Orleans, with its ingrained preference for operas of the French and, later, Italian repertoire, showed no interest in the works of Richard Strauss during the first decades of the 20th century. The possibility of their being produced locally was further diminished after 1919 when the French Opera House burned.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this CD will be invested in The New Orleans Opera Endowment Fund to secure the future of Opera in New Orleans.
