Inspired by Greek mythology, this orchestral piece from 1872 reflects the tale of Heracles serving Omphale, where he dons women's attire and engages in spinning. Originally influenced by Liszt's tone poems, it gained popularity in the early 20th century, notably featured in The Shadow radio program. The book includes a newly engraved edition of the score, meticulously prepared by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr., showcasing its artistic and historical significance.
