Garmisch Partenkirchen, Ger
many, (/P)—Richard Strauss, one
of the world’s greatest contempor
ary composers, died yesterday. Ho
was H5.
His genius ran the gamut of
musical expression from simple
songs and chamber music to sym
phonic poems, symphonies and
operas. “Der Rosenkavelier” and
his impressionistic opera "Salome”
ar& among his most popular works.
He was a musical prodigy at the
age of four and began composing
when he was six. At 12 his Opus
No 1, a “Fetmarsch” for orchestra
was before the public.
Impressionistic expressions in
tone form which Strauss composed
in middle life were the subject of
critical debate. He lived to see
many of his innovations become al
most commonplace musical device.

for obtaining evidence.
