Herbert von Karajan conducting Wiener Philharmoniker - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Don Giovanni Overture

2.01, Dies irae: Dies irae (coro)

Giuseppe Verdi, Herbert Von Karajan,

Verdi’s Requiem |  Dies irae: Dies irae

Day of wrath and doom impending,
That day will dissolve the world in ashes
As David prophesied with the Sibyl

Day of wrath and doom impending
How great a terror there will be
When from heaven the judge descendeth
On whose sentence all dependeth.

슈베르트의 미완성 교향곡은 그 짧은 연주시간 덕에 늘 다른 레퍼토리와 함께 수록되거나 연주되곤 한다 바로 앞전 포스팅한 곡은 말러 대지의 노래 중 6번째 고별. 버나드 하이팅크는 런던 심포니와 함께 2009년 슈베르트 미완성 교향곡과 말러의 대지의 노래로 여러차례 실황을 가졌다. 

Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity

Herbert von Karajan

Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity

The spirit of this music is very much in keeping with the astrological significance of Jupiter as the planet of benevolence and generosity. This Jupiter has no thunderbolts to hurtle down on us, but only knowing smiles and a wink or two. He has come down from Olympus to flirt with beauties in the mortal realm and, if flirtation leads to something more, so much the better. We hear him chasing but not catching the ladies. He invites all to dance, then seems not to favour any one of them any more than the others —- one of those men who loves all women because they are women and for no other reason. The music emerges from its cavorting, twirling and gambolling out onto a central plateau of graceful dance music, then sinks back into the carefree patterns of before. A very famous poem, near and dear to British hearts, was later set to this music and the two have been inseparable ever since. The first verse was played at the Royal Wedding of Charles and Diana, while its second verse was sung at Diana’s funeral:

 

And there’s another CountryI’ve heard of long ago,Most Dear to them that Love her,most Great to them that Know.

 

We may not count her Armies.We may not see her King.Her Fortress is a faithful Heart;her Pride is Suffering.And Soul by Soul and silently,her shining Bounds increaseAnd her ways are ways of Gentlenessand all her paths are Peace!

 

We may not count her Armies.We may not see her King.Her Fortress is a faithful Heart;her Pride is Suffering.And Soul by Soul and silently,her shining Bounds increaseAnd her ways are ways of Gentlenessand all her paths are Peace!
