“Richard Strauss has not yet appeared in Krzysztof Urbanski’s discography. So we were all the more excited to hear these interpretations, which, let it be said right away, are truly impressive. In Don Juan, Urbanski succeeds very well in describing Don Juan’s temperament, his impetuous urge for amorous adventures, but also his sensuality: Urbanski portrays him with great warmth … The tone poem Till Eulenspiegel is also beautifully played. It is perhaps less bold than with other conductors, but much more ironic. In Also sprach Zarathustra Urbanski also succeeds very well. I especially like the orchestra’s colourfulness and the transparency that reveals a great wealth of details… “ *****
