BRIDGEPORT SUNDAY POST, APRIL 4, 1971 Airwave Topics --by Fred Russell When Richard Strauss completed his remarkable tonej poem "Thus Spake Zarathustra," inspired by the philoso-j pher Friedrich Nietzsche's book, the German composer disclaimed any intention of writing philosophical music! or portraying Nietzsche's great work musically. He plained that he meant to convey by means of music anj idea of the development of the human race from its through the various phases of evolution, religious as wellj as scientific, up to Nietzsche's idea of the superman, Despite his disclaimer, Strauss' score must be considered philosophical in that it is a musical picture of man's mortality. And it is this philosophy which is probed by Leonard Bernstein, of Fairfield, when he narrates and conducts "Thus Spake Richard Strauss" in the second of this season's New York Philharmonic Young People's Concerts this afternoon o'clock) on Channels 2 and 3 in color. The tone poem is derived from! eteht of the 80 chapters superman in all his glory--a Nietzsche's book, and these eight! sweeping waltz melody typical of musical selections, plus a pro-j trauss logue, are "Hie tone poem ends with bells motion.
