MOZART : ET INCARNATUS EST

Πίσω στον καλλιτέχνη του μήνα. Ένα από τα σημαντικότερα έργα του – νιόπαντρου τη στιγμή της σύνθεσης, και νεοφερμένου στη Βιέννη – Wolfgang Amadé, ήταν η Μεγάλη Λειτουργία σε Ντο Ελάσσονα, K 427. Ακούμε από αυτήν το ‘Et incarnatus est’ – ερμηνεύει η σοπράνο Sylvia McNair. Την χορωδία Μonteverdi και τους English Baroque Soloists διευθύνει ο John Eliot Gardiner.
Πρώτη ερμηνεύτρια του συγκεκριμένου θέματος, στην πρεμιέρα του έργου [Αββαείο του Αγ. Πέτρου, Salzburg, 26/10/1783] ήταν η
ευτυχής σύζυγος, Constanze.

Back to the artist of the month. One of the most important works by
Wolfgang Amadé, – a newlywed at the time of this composition, and a newcomer to Vienna – was the Great Mass in C minor, K 427. From this we hear ‘Et incarnatus est’ – performed by soprano Sylvia McNair. The Monteverdi Choir and the English Baroque Soloists are conducted by John Eliot Gardiner.
First performer of this theme, on the work’s premiere [St. Peter’ s Abbey, Salzburg, 26/10/1783] was happy wife
Constanze.

    Oh my! This is lush and beautiful. Thank you!
    Also, thank you for the bits of history you include.
    I love that Mozart married his song bird.

      Yes – not such a happy marriage though, after all. I suppose they had their moments – I like to think this occasion as one of them!
      Thank you!
