Schubert: Messe in Es und Mozart: Vesperae solennes de Confessore

Read and write feedback
Schubert’s connection to sacred music originated during his youth, when he sang as an eleven-year-old soprano soloist in the Lichtenthal Church in Vienna and later also contributed compositions for mass, as well as other sacred works for worship services. On the other hand the Mass in E flat major D 950 is among Schubert’s last completed works. It was composed in 1828, probably for the Trinity Church in Vienna, Alsergrund. Like many of Schuberts works on a large scale, it was largely forgotten after his death and was only rediscovered on the initiative of Johannes Brahms in 1865. Sir Charles Mackerras conducted the Mass with the Staatskapelle Dresden in this recording for his belated debut at the Dresdner Faruenkriche with renowned soloists, including Genia Kühmeier und Matthew Rose. Mozart’s equally-beloved Vesperae solennes de confessore KV 339, with the famous „Laudate Dominum“ completes this recording and it is much more than just a supplement to Schubert’s Masse – it points towards the roots of Schubert’s sacred music. The booklet contains an in-depth interview with Sir Charles Macherras.

  • 1. Dixit Dominus (Soli SATB e Coro SATB)

    The Lord said to my Lord:
    sit thou at my right hand,
    until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
    The Lord will send forth the sceptre of thy power out of Sion:
    rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
    With thee is the principality in the day of thy strength in the brightness of the saints:
    from the womb before the morning star
    I begot thee.
    The Lord hath sworn, and He will not repent:
    Thou art a priest for ever
    according to the order of Melchisedech.
    The Lord at thy right hand hath broken kings in the day of His wrath.
    He shall judge among nations,
    He shall fill ruins:
    He shall crush the heads in the land of many.
    He shall drink of the torrent in the way:

  • 1. Dixit Dominus (Soli SATB e Coro SATB)

    Der Herr sprach zu meinem Herrn:
    Setze dich zu meiner Rechten,
    bis ich deine Feinde
    zum Schemel deiner Füße lege.
    Der Herr wird das Zepter deiner Macht ausstrecken aus Zion:
    Herrsche mitten unter deinen Feinden!
    Wenn du dein Heer aufbietest,
    wird dir dein Volk willig folgen in heiligem Schmuck.
    Deine Kinder werden dir geboren wie der Tau aus der Morgenröte.
    Der Herr hat geschworen, und es wird ihn nicht gereuen:
    Du bist ein Priester ewiglich
    nach der Weise Melchisedeks.
    Der Herr zu deiner Rechten wird zerschmettern die Könige am Tage seines Zorns.
    Er wird richten unter den Heiden, wird viele erschlagen,
    wird Häupter zerschmettern über große Lande.
    Er wird trinken vom Bach auf dem Wege,

  • 1. Dixit Dominus (Soli SATB e Coro SATB)

    Dixit Dominus Domino meo:
    Sede a dextris meis:
    Donec ponam inimicos tuos,
    scabellum pedum tuorum.
    Virgam virtutis tuae emittet Dominus ex Sion:
    dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
    Tecum principium in die virtutis tuae
    in splendoribus sanctorum:
    ex utero ante luciferum genui te.
    Juravit Dominus, et non poenitebit eum:
    Tu es sacerdos in aeternum
    secundum ordinem Melchisedech. Dominus a dextris tuis,
    confregit in die irae suae reges.
    Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas:
    conquasabit capita in terra multorum.
    De torrente in via bibet:
    propterea exaltabit caput.
    Psalm 109

  • Founded in 1548 by the Elector Moritz von Sachsen, the Staatskapelle Dresden is among the world’s oldest orchestras and it is rich in tradition; it is probably the only one which has existed continuously for more than four and a half centuries, and has always been among the leading orchestras during every epoch. Along with its unique musicianship, founded on its quite specific ensemble spirit, the unmistakable sound of the Staatskapelle has evolved through its long tradition in matters of timbre, transparency and homogeneity, which has lead audiences and critics everywhere to refer to it as one of the great orchestras of our time. Important conductors and internationally celebrated instrumentalists have left their mark on the former Hofkapelle, now Staatskapelle. Its musical directors have included Heinrich Schütz, Johann Adolf Hasse, Carl Maria von Weber and Richard Wagner, who called the orchestra his “miraculous harp.” Important principal conductors of the 20th century were Ernst von Schuch, Fritz Reiner, Fritz Busch, Karl Böhm, Joseph Keilberth, Rudolf Kempe, Otmar Suitner, Kurt Sanderling and Herbert Blomstedt. From 1992 until his death in 2001 Giuseppe Sinopoli was the principal conductor, then from 2002 until 2004 Bernard Haitink. At the beginning of the 2007/2008 season Fabio Luisi became General Musical Director of the Staatsoper Dresden and therefore also the principal conductor of the Staatskapelle Dresden. The honorary conductor of the orchestra since 1990 is Sir Colin Davis. In April 2007 the Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden was the only orchestra so far to be awarded, in Brussels, the “Prize of the European Cultural Foundation for the preservation of the musical world cultural heritage”.

[...] Der sehr gut disponierte Chor meistert nicht nur die hohen Anforderungen der Partitur scheinbar mühelos, sondern wird auch durch eng mensurierte Posaunen colla parte begleitet, was zu einem speziell hellen und schlanken Klangbild führt. [...]
