Those who seek authenticity when travelling can easily be misled: Richard Strauss was one of them when he thought he had heard an original Neapolitan folk song in Naples and incorporated it into his symphonic fantasy "Aus Italien". In fact, "Funiculì, funiculà" had been composed by Luigi Denza just a few years earlier, and in a less than popular context at that - as an advertisement for the new cable car up Vesuvius. Strauss' trip to Italy nevertheless represented a turning point in his work: "Aus Italien" brilliantly opens the series of tone poems with which he became famous.
