Beethoven - Missa en ut
Overview
Intro
Choirs and orchestra
Composed in 1807, Ludwig van Beethoven’s Mass in C major marks an important milestone in the evolution of sacred music. Beethoven breaks away from the conventions of his time to offer a deeply personal interpretation of the liturgical text, in which power and introspection, dramatic surges, and passages of great tenderness interplay.Driven by the interplay between orchestra, choir, and soloists, the work reveals a Beethoven who is both fervent and deeply human. Less monumental than the *Missa solemnis* he would compose fifteen years later, the Mass in C Major captivates with its balance, its radiance, and the richness of its contrasts.Sinfonia-VS presents this event in collaboration with the Festival d’Art Sacré. Jean-David Waeber, Conductor; Choirs Sierrénade and Cantamabile; Marie-Marthe Claivaz, soprano; Paola Cialdella, mezzo-soprano; Gabriel Colin, tenor; Geoffroy Perruchoud, bass
