In 1889, the 25-year-old Richard Strauss took up the post of conductor at the Weimar theatre, an institution indelibly shaped by Ferenc Liszt several decades earlier.
Richard Strauss discovered the genre of the symphonic - or tone - poem early on. As early as the 1880s, after completing the orchestral fantasy Aus Italien, he wrote Macbeth, Don Juan and Tod und Verklärung. Also Sprach Zarathustra is the work of the mature composer who wrote of the piece, "I did not intend to write philosophical music or to portray Nietzsche's great work in music. […] The whole symphonic poem is intended as a homage to Nietzsche's genius, which found its greatest expression in his book Also Sprach Zarathustra.”
