Alpine Symphony Tickets

Alpine Symphony refers to Richard Strauss’s monumental tone poem, Eine Alpensinfonie, Op. 64, not a contemporary solo artist. Composed and completed in 1915, the work paints a full Alpine day from sunrise to nightfall, demanding a large, colorfully wired orchestra and unusual effects like wind machines and thunder sheets.
