Though I\u2019m a trifle late to the party, I do have a Price episode today, and one with a twist, featuring the beloved diva in a repertoire she only occasionally performed: the operas of Richard Strauss. Today let\u2019s imagine ourselves back in the 1960s and early 1970s in an alternate universe, one in which Leontyne Price was one of the leading interpreters of the operas of Richard Strauss. Fortunately, there are enough live and studio recordings for us to create such a universe: over the course of her career, Price performed and recorded Strauss repertoire ranging from <em>Guntram<\/em>, his first opera from 1893, through his penultimate opera, <em>Die Liebe der Danae<\/em>, completed in 1940, but first officially premiered posthumously in 1952. The excerpts heard range from an early British radio recording of <em>Danae<\/em> in 1959, through a remarkably viable performance of the final scene of <em>Salome<\/em> from as late as1986. She is also heard in an extended live excerpt from <em>Ariadne auf Naxos<\/em>, the one Strauss role she performed onstage. I have remarked repeatedly elsewhere that the music of Strauss seemed to bring out the very best in Leontyne Price, and that is certainly true of the performances heard here, tantalizing teasers of what might have been, had she chosen to explore more of these roles onstage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-size\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><strong> RECORDINGS HEARD IN THIS EPISODE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"311\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/countermelodypodcast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Price-Bess.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20360\" style=\"width:427px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countermelodypodcast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Price-Bess.jpg 311w, https:\/\/countermelodypodcast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Price-Bess-222x300.jpg 222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 311px) 100vw, 311px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin, DuBose Heyward: Summertime (<em>Porgy and Bess<\/em>).
