"Of the dozens of concerts given by Radio France every season, there are some which deserve to be preserved for posterity.  Indeed, concerts are unique moments, often highly charged with emotion, which Radio can broadcast and disks can preserve.  This at least was our idea when we created this collection. With it you can not only hear concerts recorded in previous seasons, but also archival recordings, musical 'incunables', if you will, held at the Institut National de L'Audiovisuel.  We hope that these disks will perpetuate the mystery and shine with living memory."

- Rene Koering, director of music at Radio France

Following up on his critical success with Richard Strauss' Die Liebe der Danae, Leon Botstein delivers a compelling interpretation of one of Strauss' lesser-known operas, Diehyptische Hna.

Carl Tanner sings Menelas opposite of Deborah Voigt who sings Helena.

Botstein and the American Symphony Orchestra's new recording of Die hyptische Hna on Telarc captures the opera in its original version without cuts. This recording represents the opera that Strauss and Hofmannsthal first envisioned.
