Membra Jesu Nostri Diskothek: Dietrich Buxtehude: Membra Jesu Nostri Montag, 26. März 2018 20.00 - 22.00 Uhr, SRF 2 Kultur Samstag, 31. März 2018 14.00 - 16.00 Uhr, SRF 2 Kultur (Zweitsendung) Gäste im Studio: Julia Schröder (Geigerin) und Jean-Christophe Groffe (Sänger). Gastgeberin: Jenny Berg Das Resultat Aufnahmen mit Werken aus der Barockzeit zeigen oft grosse Unterschiede, da die Barockmusik den Interpretinnen und Interpreten viele Freiheiten lässt. So ist es auch bei Dietrich Buxtehudes «Membra Jesu nostri»: Es gibt chorische und solistische Besetzungen, unterschiedlich gestimmte Instrumente, italienische und lateinische Textaussprache bei diesen fünf Aufnahmen – und es gibt noch etliche weitere Interpretationen auf dem CD-Markt. In Runde eins wird die Tempowahl zum Ausschlusskriterium: René Jacobs mit dem Concerto Vocale Gent (A3) geht die Beschreibung der Körperteile Jesu zu sportlich an, das Bach Collegium Japan mit Dirigent Masaaki Suzuki (A4) schwankt zu stark im Tempo – eine vergleichsweise gute, aber auch gewöhnliche Interpretation, fanden die beiden Gäste. In der zweiten Runde scheidet das Purcell Quartett (A5) aus – eine Aufnahme mit ausgezeichneten Sängern, dafür aber mit einer recht schlichten Gestaltung des Basso continuo. Am Schluss gibt es einen klaren Sieger: Obwohl Cantus Cölln mit Konrad Junghänel (A1) immer wieder für Gänsehaut sorgt, den Text bewusst ausgestaltet und sehr rhythmisch agiert, überzeugt über alle drei Runden die Aufnahme mit Ton Koopmann und dem Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir) am meisten (A2). Er hat das Werk mehrfach aufgenommen, dies hier ist die zweite Einspielung: Eine sehr lebendige Aufnahme, die ins Innere geht, die die Stimmungen bewusst einsetzt, um die harmonischen Bewegungen zu schärfen, und dabei elegant und historisch informiert verziert. Aufnahme 2: Siri Karoline Thornhill; Dorothee Wohlgemut Patrick van Goethem; Jörg Dürmüller; Klaus Mertens Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra and Choir; Ton Koopman, Leitung Challenge Classics (2012) .

    Figurenlehre and Affektenlehre in Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu ostri © 2006 Helen K. H. Wong Per medullam cordis mei, Into the depths of my heart, Peccatoris atque rei, Sinful and wicked, Tuus amor transferatur, Let thy love be transported, Quo cor tuum rapiatur This love bereft of thy heart, Languens amoris vulnere. Languishing with love’s wounds. Viva cordis voce clamo, With my heart’s own voice I beseech thee, Dulce cor, te namque amo, Sweet heart, for I love thee, Ad cor meum inclinare, To incline thyself upon my heart, Ut se posit applicare That it may cleave Devoto tibi pectore. To thy venerated breast. (Buxtehude, Membra Jesu Nostri, “Ad Pectus”) Like many of his sacred vocal works, Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu ostri , a cycle of seven cantatas, has been associated by writers on music with its Pietist qualities for its choice of text. 1 A composite of Latin blibical texts and medieval poems of a subjective religious tone, each of the seven cantatas represents a spiritual contemplation on one of the parts of Christ’s crucified body: feet, knees, hands, side, breast, heart and face. 2 While the poems indeed 1 The intense personal and subjective language of the poem can be compared to an analogy made by Abraham Calovius (1612-86), the German Lutheran theologian of the 17 th century on the relationship between Christ and the Pietist believers: “ The espousal (marriage) of Christ with belivers is that which He eternally marries Himself to believers through faith, so that they become one spirit, and by His power communicates to them, as to His spiritual bride, intimate and enduring love, all His blessings and all His glory, so as to finally lead them to Him home, and dwell with them in His celestial and eternal kingdom.”Explains a bit about Pietism and music.

However, no significant portion of his choral music is in the standard performing repertoire. Buxtehude’s large-scale choral work Membra Jesu Nostri should be considered a seminal “passion” composition in part because of its historic position in early German Lutheran church music. It also serves as an example of the heightened levels of affect in a seventeenth century devotional passion. To better understand Buxtehude and his music, an overview of his life, career and religious beliefs are discussed, including the incorporation of pietism and mysticism in his cantata, Membra Jesu Nostri. Details of the composition’s structure, unifying thematic elements and text sources with translations are included. Through these observations, it will be shown that Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri is one of the most well-conceived and well-constructed choral works of the early Baroque era. Key words : Buxtehude, choral music, passion, Membra Jesu Nostri I. Introduction A prolific composer of sacred vocal and instrumental ensemble music, Dietrich Buxtehude’s (ca. 1637-1707) fame as a composer mainly derives from works that he composed during his tenure as organist at Marienkirche (St. Mary’s Church) in Lübeck. He also composed vocal cantatas, concertos, and oratorios, though his position did not require him to do so. In actuality, his surviving vocal music outnumbers his keyboard and ensemble pieces, totaling - 45 - 敎科敎育硏究, 제35권 제1호(2014.6) more than 120 vocal and choral works, 120 keyboard pieces, and twenty-one instrumental sonatas.

  • Membra Jesu Nostri (1680)
    30 VAN DEN BERG Dissecting Jesus The Spiritual Role of the Senses in Buxtehude’s Cantata Cycle Membra Jesu Nostri (1680) Clemens van den Berg ABSTRACT The influence of German Pietism, a Protestant spiritual movement emphasizing the corporeal and the sensorial, on baroque composer Dieterich Buxtehude (ca. 1637-1707) has long been discussed among historians and musicologists of the seventeenth century like Martin Geck and Isabella van Elferen. However, current scholarship lacks detailed analyses of the composer’s individual works to assess how and to what extent this influence occurred. This paper, therefore, examines the contents of Membra Jesu Nostri, a peculiar composition by Buxtehude in which adoration of the limbs of Christ’s crucified body happens both textually and musically. This paper expands on the recent attention for the role of the senses in religious contexts and uses concepts from material religion to scrutinize the choices the composer made in his libretto and musical framework, thus tackling the issue of corporeal spirituality in Membra. It concludes that this specific compositional cycle does reflect Pietist inspiration, with a particularly striking role of the union of the senses: all co-operate to ensure a total immersion in the veneration of Christ’s body. KEYWORDS Dieterich Buxtehude, Baroque Music, German Pietism, History of Religion (17th Century), Sensorial Religion, Corporeal Religion. INTRODUCTION In 1680, the Northern German composer Dieterich (alternative spellings Dietrich and Diderich) Buxtehude (ca. 1637-1707) dedicated a cycle6 of seven Latin cantatas to his Swedish colleague Gustav Düben (1628-1690). The work categorized as BuxWV 757 is fully titled Membra Jesu nostri patientis sanctissima (Latin: “The Most Holy Limbs of Our Suffering Lord Jesus”), but better Junctions: Graduate Journal of the Humanities Clemens van den Berg.

However, no significant portion of his choral music is in the standard performing repertoire. Buxtehude’s large-scale choral work Membra Jesu Nostri should be considered a seminal “passion” composition in part because of its historic position in early German Lutheran church music. It also serves as an example of the heightened levels of affect in a seventeenth century devotional passion. To better understand Buxtehude and his music, an overview of his life, career and religious beliefs are discussed, including the incorporation of pietism and mysticism in his cantata, Membra Jesu Nostri. Details of the composition’s structure, unifying thematic elements and text sources with translations are included. Historical performance practices are discussed, including the composer’s probable intent of having one of the seven cantatas performed every day before Easter. This research study also provides conductors with a variety of practical performance considerations. Through these observations, it will be shown that Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri is one of the most well-conceived and well-constructed choral works of the early Baroque era. i DEDICATION In nomine Jesu, Soli Deo Gloria (In the name of Jesus, to God alone be the glory) And to my parents Kim, Ha Sub and Lee, Jung Ji My love and respect will always be with you.

    GEORG FRIEDRICH HÄNDEL ~ BELSHAZZAR EDITION ultur in ihrer authentischen Form zu publizieren heisst für uns: herausragende Aufführun- K gen und Konzerte für die Nachwelt festzuhalten und zu vermitteln. Denn Künstler, Publi- kum, Werk und Raum treten in einen intimen Dialog, der in Form und Ausdruck - in seiner Atmosphäre - einmalig und unwiederbringlich ist. Diese Symbiose, die Spannung der Auf- führung, dem Hörer in all ihren Facetten möglichst intensiv erlebbar zu machen, sehen wir als Ziel, als Philosophie unseres Hauses. Das Ergebnis sind einzigartige Interpretationen von musikalischen und literarischen Werken, schlicht - audiophile Momentaufnahmen von blei- bendem Wert - aufgenommen in „Direct 2-Track Digital Stereo“. Die Konzerte im Kloster Maulbronn, die wir in dieser Edition dokumentieren, bieten in vielfacher Hinsicht die idealen Voraussetzungen für unser Bestreben. Es ist wohl vor allem die Atmosphäre in den von romantischem Kerzenlicht erhellten Gewölben, der Zauber des Klosters in seiner unverfälschten sakralen Ausstrahlung und Ruhe, die in ihrer Wirkung auf Künstler und Publikum diese Konzerte prägen. Renommierte Solisten und Ensembles der grossen internationalen Bühnen sind gerne und vor allem immer wieder hier zu Gast - ge- niessen es in der akustisch und architektonisch vollendeten Schönheit des Weltkulturerbes (Klosterkirche, Laienrefektorium, Kreuzgang, etc.) in exquisiten Aufführungen weltliche und sakrale Werke darzubieten.
