Richard Strauss Days (Richard-Strauss-Tage) is a summer music festival in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, southern Germany, founded in 1989.[1] Between 2008 and 2017, during which time the festival was headed by Brigitte Fassbaender, it went by the name of Richard-Strauss-Festival;[1] the Semperoper in Dresden also stages a regular, separate series of events in honour of the composer that go by the name Richard Strauss Days.[2]
Running from 21 June to 29 June, the 2025 festival included orchestral and chamber music concerts, a Lieder evening, dance projects, and master classes, long part of the programme.[3][4] There is also an initiative to "document" the festival with live recordings.[5]
