Odds and ends




Recalled to life

Images of China - 1870s

Einleitung oder Sonnenaufgang - Richard Strauss (1864–1949)

Entitled 'Sunrise' the opening fanfare to Strauss's 1896 Also Sprach Zarathustra tone poem is based on a philosophical novel by Nietzsche. Perhaps best known for its use in the 1968 movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey, the theme was also consistently used by Elvis Presley at the start of his performances in the six years before his death.
