By way of an appendix to the Mozart celebrations of 2006, Orfeo present Richard Strauss' version of Idomeneo on its Salzburg Festival label. Strauss prepared his arrangement of Idomeneo in 1930-31. An example of his active love of Mozart, it was intended to bring to the attention of a wider audience a work he valued very highly. Live Recording 25/8/2006

“Strauss's lushed-up Mozart exerts its grotesque if absorbing power… A clear-cut choice, then, for anyone wanting this strange, perversely absorbing slice of operatic history.” Gramophone Magazine, February 2008
