Chormusik war für Charles Villiers Stanford von zentraler Bedeutung für sein Leben als Komponist. Die Auferstehung war sein erstes großes Chorwerk, das er während seines Studiums bei Carl Reinecke in Leipzig schrieb und Mahlers Verwendung von Klopstocks gleichnamigem Gedicht in seiner "Auferstehungs"-Symphonie vorwegnahm. Das dramatische, zuweilen fast opernartige und wagnerianische Stabat Mater ist eine Kantate mit zwei rein orchestralen Sätzen, die an eine große Sinfonie denken lassen, während Song to the Soul einige der berauschendsten Äußerungen Stanfords enthält, obwohl es zu seinen Lebzeiten nie aufgeführt wurde.
Product Information
Choral music was central to Charles Villiers Stanford’s life as a composer. Balancing solemnity with rapturous affirmation, The Resurrection was his first major choral work, written while he was studying under Carl Reinecke in Leipzig and anticipating Mahler’s use of Klopstock’s eponymous poem in his ‘Resurrection’ Symphony. The dramatic, at times almost operatic and Wagnerian Stabat Mater is a cantata with two purely orchestral movements suggestive of a large-scale symphony, while Song to the Soul contains some of Stanford’s most exhilarating utterances, though it was never performed in his lifetime.
