Paulus op. 36: Oratorium / Klavierauszug

Description

"


For his Oratorio Mendelssohn made a discreet selection from St. Paul's eventful life as recounted in the acts of the Apostles. The story begins with the stoning of St. Steven by the Jews, and continues through his miraculous conversion to the scene in Lystra, where Paul himself is nearly martyred by stoning, and his farewell in Miletus. Hardly any Oratorio of the Romantic period, could match St. Paul in popularity. Only years later was it overtaken in the public esteem by Mendlessohn's Elijah. In the first two years following its premiere performance it was performed in over fifty German cities, in many European capitals and the United States.<\/p>

Paulus op. 36 (Klavierauszug): F\u00fcr SATBB soli, Chor und Orchester<\/strong>



Das Paulus-Oratorium ist ein Auftragswerk des Frankfurter C\u00e4cilien-Verein. 1832 wurde es in Auftrag gegeben wurde und in seiner endg\u00fcltigen Fassung 1836 in Liverpool aufgef\u00fchrt. In zwei Teilen erz\u00e4hlt Mendelssohn in diesem Werk die Geschichte des Apostels Paulus. Dramatische wichtige Szenen l\u00e4sst der Komponist aus. Es geht Mendelssohn nicht um die Nacherz\u00e4hlung der Apostelgeschichte sondern um die Darstellung der Pers\u00f6nlichkeit des Paulus. In dieser Form ist das Oratorium ein Appell zur Bekehrung.<\/p><\/P>"
