Rihm, Wolfgang: DEUS PASSUS: Passion Fragments after St. Luke

Christoph Pregardien, Tenor; Andreas Schmidt, Bass
Gachinger Kantorei, Bach-CollegiumStuttgart
Helmuth Rilling, Conductor
Last fall, a series of modern masterworks were premiered as the capstone of the yearlong commemoration of the death of Johann Sebastian Bach. Four settings of the Good Friday narrative were commission by four of the world's leading composers: Sofia Gubaidulina, Tan Dun, Osvaldo Golijov and Wolfgang Rihm.

First to be released by the international award winning Hänssler Classic label is Wolfgang Rihm's transcendent requiem of Reconciliation, DEUS PASSUS.

For those familiar with Rihm's earlier work, DEUS PASSUS constitutes a new direction in his stylistic development. Absent are the violent juxtapositions and bold gestures of Rihm's earlier work. In their place, a delicate, carefully chosen almost “impressionistic” palette has been selected. This “impressionistic” approach applies equally to the texts that Rihm selected to set. Consciously selecting St. Luke's account of Jesus' death, specifically for it's lack of anti-Semitic content, Rihm deleted all non dialogue material and supplemented his “Passion fragment” with selections from the Catholic lectionary, the Stabat Mater and poetic interpolations, concluding with a moving setting of Paul Celan's “inverted prayer”, TENEBRAE.

Grammy Award winning conductor, Helmuth Rilling delivers one of the finest performances of his career, directing the Gachinger Kantorei, the Bach-Collegium Stuttgart and stellar soloists Juliane Banse, Iris Vermillion, Cornelia Kallisch, Christoph Prégardien and Andreas Schmidt in a score that rightfully takes it's place with the 20th century's “other” great St. Luke Passion, the Penderecki “Passio et more domini nostri Jesu Christi secundum Lucam”.
