{"product_id":"richard-strauss-9780714837949","title":"Richard Strauss","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis revealing biography examines the life and works of the influential German composer Richard Strauss (1864-1949), whose evocative tone poems and beautifully crafted operas have been somewhat tainted in the public's imagination following claims that the composer was a Nazi sympathizer. Strauss's compositions also courted controversy, in particular his setting of Oscar Wilde's outrageous play \u003ci\u003eSalome\u003c\/i\u003e. In this book Tim Ashley delves beneath Strauss's public persona, in order to further understand the truth behind the myths, and the ways in which the composer's personality and private life influenced his often sublime music.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Ashley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Phaidon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/03\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.69h x 6.26w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780714837949\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/12\/1999 pg. 66\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/1999 pg. 1657\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Phaidon Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40618862379123,"sku":"9.78071E+12","price":46.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_3d8a5297-8ab7-470e-98e7-a00eda9eca69.jpg?v=1670423357","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/richard-strauss-9780714837949","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
