The Cleveland Orchestra: Santtu-Matias Rouvali - Strauss at Severance Music Center

Strauss before lunch? If Ein Heldenleben is your kind of music, Friday has an unusually good plan.

Santtu-Matias Rouvali leads The Cleveland Orchestra in a morning program focused on Richard Strauss's Ein Heldenleben. Unlike the Thursday and Saturday programs, this performance concentrates on the Strauss work. That makes the 11 AM date especially appealing if you've wanted to hear the full orchestral drama without another major composition sharing the bill.

The Cleveland performance is November 20, 2026, 11:00 AM at Severance Music Center. The music moves through a broad range of orchestral color and tension. At Severance, you can follow the full arc with the players in front of you rather than catching a favorite passage on a recording. It's a deliberate way to start Friday: one major work, one orchestra, and time to be absorbed in it.

Make Strauss your Friday morning appointment. Check tickets for Rouvali Conducts Strauss.
