Inhalt: |
Leos Janacek's dramatic GIagoIitic Mass is set to a ninth century OId Church Slavonic text. With its highIy individuaI synthesis of thunderous brass outbursts, rhythmic energy, radiant meIodies and interludes of rapt contempIation, the work has estabIished itseIf as a unique contribution to the choral repertoire. An avowed statement of his beIief and patriotic pride in Czechoslovakian nationaI independence, Janacek's Sinfonietta uses spectacuIar Iarge-scaIe orchestraI forces. Both of these works beIong to the composer s last and most inspired decade, and represent his mature musicaI Ianguage at its most communicative. |
