Text language: English. Text: Jennens, Charles.
George Frideric Handel is considered England's first and foremost composer of oratorios. Above all, the Messiah is regarded as the epitome of sacred music and in German-speaking countries it is also one of the most often performed works in the genre. The version of the Messiah which is most often performed today is a combination of various versions. Consequently, the present critical edition by Ton Koopman contains all the surviving alternative versions of the solo movements. A concordance makes it possible to assign these movements to those various performances of the work conducted by Handel between the Dublin premiere in 1742 and the London concerts which took place up to 1759. In accordance with the wishes voiced by many choral conductors and singers, the vocal score is available in separate English and German versions. Score available separately - see item CA.5505600.

The English conductor and composer Howard Arman has presented us with a completed version of Mozartâs Requiem. âAnother one?â you might ask, since this publication is only the latest in a long line reaching back to the traditional SüÃmayr version. Yet such is the enormous power of Mozartâs score that the challenge and appeal of completing it remain undiminished. After two decades of intensive study, Howard Armanâs additions to Mozartâs great original show the requisite care and respect while incorporating many new insights.Armanâs approach is particularly fruitful. Always aware of the appropriate limits to such re-creative work, he orients himself towards the typical characteristics of Mozartâs brilliant composing style: The masterly compositional technique, the search for innovative solutions to every problem, and even the terse treatment of the text with extremely suggestive harmonies. All of this leads to a number of new listening experiences. In the Tuba mirum, for example, we enjoy a warm, cohesive ensemble sound, supported by the bassoons, which depart from the bass line. The Confutatis presents a quite different picture: Even the basset horns are drawn down into the infernal depths. This effect is reinforced by the independence of the trombones; rather than simply following the choral parts, the instrumentâs unique sound is given an opportunity to shine. Armanâs Lacrimosa achieves a lively Mozartian feel by granting the voices considerable freedom rather than following a rigid pattern. And he concludes the movement with a fugal Amen, whereby the focus is not so much on the counterpoint itself, but rather â in the spirit of Mozart â on creating a sense of drama and illuminating the theme in all its possible facets. Mozartâs fragment ends with the Hostias, and so does Armanâs completion. For the four following movements (Sanctus to Communio) we have nothing from Mozart, and so here, where the master is silent, Arman finally returns to SüÃmayr, the man who was closest to Mozart at the time of his death and whose efforts to fill the blank manuscripts still garner our respect today.Armanâs version has already proven its practical value. The premiere with the Bavarian Radio Choir was enthusiastically received by audiences and press alike â and celebrated as offering a scholarly, entirely fresh perspective on Mozartâs masterpiece.- World premiere by the Bavarian Radio Choir- Enthusiastically received by audience and press.
