"The applause continues, even a few bravos can be heard: definitely get out again, take a grateful bow! Something full of verve and vigor to increase the enthusiasm even more? Or would you prefer something calm and quiet for the soul?" - Although encores have not always been at the heart of musical performances, they are often an integral part of the concert program. As a kind of bonus to his life's work, Robert Wolf, who was principal flute of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra for almost 40 years, and his daughter Agnes Wolf, piano, present the range of various encores from his many years of concert activity on the present CD "ENCORE". In addition to original works by W. A. Mozart, M. Blavet, C. Debussy, M. Ravel and J. S. Bach, there are also frequent arrangements of well-known pieces by C. W. Gluck, F. Schubert, D. Shostakovich, G. Fauré and J. Lanner, among others.

Chester Burnett alias Howlin' Wolf (1910-1976) est l'une des figures les plus importantes du blues d'après-guerre. Surnommé ainsi en raison d'une voix profonde et puissante, l'imposant « shouter » (hurleur) commence à enregistrer, au moment même où le rock'n'roll prend forme, des morceaux de blues électrique qui vont influencer des dizaines de chanteurs et groupes des années soixante. Auteur de nombreux classiques parmi lesquels « (Sittin On) Top of the World », « Spoonful », « Little Red Rooster », « Smokestack Lightning », « Killing Floor » ou « Back Door Man », Howlin' Wolf fut l'un des rares bluesmen à connaître le succès de son vivant. Le rock, personnifié par The Rolling Stones, Van Morrison, Jim Morrison, Robert Plant ou Jack White, lui est fortement redevable.
