First performed in Dresden in 1909, Elektra was Strauss’s first collaboration (of many) with the librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthal, and is the most modernist of all of his operas. Based on the (heavily reworked) play by Sophocles, Hofmannsthal’s version concentrates on the inner thoughts and feelings of Elektra as she holds individual conversations with other members of her family. Strauss’s score is exceptionally adventurous harmonically, and famously features the Elektra Chord (a simultaneous combination of E major and C sharp major). The orchestration is exceptionally lavish – even by Strauss’s standards – featuring eight horns, six trumpets, double timpani and two harps. The performance was recorded live in Bergen in December 2023, Edward Gardner conducting a cast lead by the great Swedish dramatic soprano Iréne Theorin, one of the finest Elektras of our time.
