The final decade of the 19th. Century would have been a totally vivid and dramatic one for the young composer Richard Strauss. He had completed many of his most famous tone poems including Don Juan, Don Quixote, Heldenleben and Till Eulenspiegel, he had collaborated and found friendship with Johannes Brahms and Gustav Mahler, was conducting at Bayreuth, for the Bavarian and Berlin State Operas and as Principal Conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
In 1894 he married the soprana Pauline de Ahna, to whom 'Morgen' Op. 27 No 4 is dedicated.
This arrangement from the composer's own orchestration is for cello solo with accompanying octet.
