  • Description

    Taken from the original recordings from March 1959 (Also Sprach) and June 1960 (Salome), this release has been remastered and is on 180 grams audiophile vinyl.

    Arguably one of the most famous pieces of classical music (thanks to genius film director Stanley Kubrick), Also sprach Zarathustra begins by considering that trumpet motif. Kubrick's borrowing of Strauss's orchestral introduction to underscore the opening of his 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey – the scene is set as the sun rises from behind the earth – remains one of the single most inspired link-ups between sound and imagery in cinematic history.

    Coupled with Strauss' Salome: Dance of the Seven Veils, these remarkable recordings can now be heard again on vinyl.
