This version of the hymn Te Deum laudamus, a clear demonstration of the vehemence of Anton Bruckner’s Faith, was premiered in January 1886 at the Vienna Musikverein. Gustav Mahler, a great admirer of his, wrote in his copy of the score: \u00abfor choir, soloists, orchestra and organ ad libitum and for seekers of God and chastened hearts.\u00bb Bruckner considered the work the \u00abpride of his life.\u00bb The beginning immediately places us in an intense environment, with the choir in unison proclaiming the praise of God in a strong tone, an environment that alternates with peaceful sections and others that are almost apocalyptic. It is one of the most vehement manifestations of Faith in all of 19th century music.
\nThe other work on the program is Leo\u0161 Jan\u00e1\u010dek’s Glagolitic Mass, premiered in Brno at the end of 1927 and considered one of the most notable and crucial religious works of the first half of the 20th century. The work follows the Ordinary of the Catholic Mass, but it uses the ancient Slavic language instead of the Latin. Hence its title. Like Bruckner’s work, it begins with an exuberant demonstration of Faith, musically embodied by triumphant fanfares dominated by brass. With this work, Jan\u00e1\u010dek attempted to celebrate Slavic culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
