About "Strauss: Nordseebilder. Walzer" by Patrick Hahn
Strauss's Nordseebilder waltz, conducted by Patrick Hahn, paints the North Sea in sweeping strokes. The waltz is elegant but the sea is restless—calm melody against turbulent depths. The tension is between the ballroom and the storm, civilization's grace shadowed by nature's indifference.
