First Edition early issue without the additional plate numbers to foot of page 3 and also without the statement "Auffügrungsrecht vorbehalten" to foot of page 5. Trenner 223. Mueller von Asow p. 409. <br /> <br /> First performed on 25 January 1909 at the Königlichen Opernhaus in Dresden under Ernst von Schuch. <br /> <br /> "Elektra . marked the beginning of Strauss's artistic association with Hugo von Hofmannsthal whom he had first met in Berlin in 1899. Having seen Reinhardt's riveting production of Hofmannsthal's Elektra in the autumn of 1905 Strauss was convinced the play would make a compelling opera. Not entirely sure he should compose consecutive tragedies he nonetheless gave in to Hofmannsthal's pleading and vigorously began composing Elektra in the summer of 1906. As he had with Oscar Wilde's Salome he set the play to music which was finished in 1908 and given its première in 1909 as part of a Strauss opera festival in Dresden. . Elektra failed to outshine her flashier sister but confirmed Strauss's pre-eminence among German opera composers." Bryan Gilliam in Grove Music Online. Adolph Fürstner [PN A.5654F.] unknown

Asow I p. 156. <br /> <br /> Strauss "emerged soon after the deaths of Wagner and Brahms as the most important living German composer. During an artistic career which spanned nearly eight decades he composed in virtually all musical genres but became best known for his tone poems composed during the closing years of the 19th century and his operas from the early decades of the 20th. .<br /> <br /> Shortly after the Guntram première he decided to compose a one-act opera Till Eulenspiegel bei den Schildbürgern though he never got beyond an incomplete text draft. Why he scrapped the opera for a tone poem is not clear but judging from his programme notes the symphonic work is based on a different scenario: 'Once upon a time there was a knavish fool named Till Eulenspiegel. He was a wicked goblin up to new tricks'. Till rides on horseback through the market mocks religion disguised as a cleric flirts with women engages in academic double talk with his philistine audience and by the end finds himself on the scaffold soon to be hanged. Strauss did not call Till a tone poem but rather a 'Rondeau Form for Large Orchestra'. Richard Specht suggested this might well have been the first prank given that the only connection with the old French forme fixe is in the spelling. Strauss later described the structure as being an 'expansion of rondo form through poetic content' and cited Beethoven's Eighth Symphony as his model. Given the libertine qualities of young Till as well as the episodic nature of the work a rondo would seem quite appropriate. But as in Don Juan the form is hardly conventional: the sense of rondo is achieved mostly by the return of Till's two themes to articulate his various adventures. Completed in May 1895 the compact Till Eulenspiegel was introduced with great success six months later and remains Strauss's most often performed orchestral piece. That he had learnt much about orchestral detail and nuance during the six years since Tod und Verklärung is evinced by his brilliant use of the ratchet when Till rides through the market or by the piercing D clarinet when he whistles in the face of death."
