Norman Del Mar (1919-1994) was universally recognised as a leading authority on the music of Richard Strauss, and his masterly three-volume study of his life and works remains a classic. Volume II spans the years 1912 to 1933 (the premi???re of Arabella), taking in the Ariadne versions, Die Frau ohne Schatten, the ballets and much incidental music.
