Averse to the metaphysics of Wagner and indifferent to Mahler's philosophical intentions in music Strauss exploited instead the paradoxes inconsistencies and potential profundities to be found in modern everyday life. The new possibilities he envisioned for music were exemplified in the eclecticism of the opera Der Rosenkavalier in which the juxtaposition of contemporary with intentionally anachronistic elements creates a stylistic pluralism that adumbrates subsequent experimentation of the later 20th century."
