Suite from Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, Op. 60: The Fencing Master

Song Description

Included in the works of Richard Strauss are a number of salon-type pieces for chamber orchestra, represented in this final item by a suite of rather complex, yet entertaining short movements of great variety. The work reaches a climax in the form of a spectacular culinary display, entitled ?The Dinner.? Every musician has the opportunity to shine in this suite scored for six violins, four violas, four cellos, two contrabasses, solo winds, piano and percussion.
