Introducción
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Symphony No. 36 in C major K. 425 "Linz" & Great Mass in C minor K. 427 (unfinished original version) "Ave Verum Corpus" K. 618
There are many attempts to put the perfection of Mozart's musical language into words. For Goethe, Mozart's work is "a miracle that cannot be explained". Nietzsche speaks of "innocence in tones". The writer Wolfgang Hildesheimer describes Mozart's personality as a "distanced enigma" in his book "Mozart", published in 1977. By this he means the enigmatic gap between Mozart the man in his letters and the supernatural in his music. It is therefore almost inexplicable that Mozart the man was able to compose his "Linz" Symphony in just four days. After all, one of the most mature works Mozart ever created was written in this short time. A few days earlier, his Great Mass in C minor was premiered in Salzburg - perhaps the most beautiful work of sacred music ever. Here, Mozart mixes the archaic formal rigor of the tradition of polyphonic church music, as influenced above all by Bach and Handel, with the emotional depth and operatic, dramatic style of his time. This work is actually a wedding present to his wife Constanze, who also sang the demanding soprano part at the premiere. With Julia Lezhneva, Artist in Residence 2026, a fascinating singer takes on this role - a critic from Nürnberger Nachrichten described her voice as "angelic".
