About the Music

This atypical program features a bursting bouquet of Strausses. James Levine leads cellist Lynn Harrell and BSO principal violist Steven Ansell in Strauss’s “fantastic variations” inspired by Cervantes’s Don Quixote, in which the solo cello roughly corresponds to Quixote and the viola to his sidekick Sancho Panza. The second half of the program features a highly entertaining mix of familiar works from the great 19th-century Viennese composers Johann Strauss and his sons, Johann II (“The Waltz King”) and Josef.
