Richard Strauss

The essential texts written by Richard Strauss were published, still in his own lifetime, by Willi Schuh in the Atlantis publishing house in 1949. The expanded second edition was published in 1957. Apart from Schuh's biography of Strauss, 'Jugend und frühe Meisterjahre', and the correspondence with Hofmannsthal, 'Betrachtungen und Erinnerungen' is one of the standard books in Strauss literature.
