  • Theatrical Drama and Franciscan Simplicity in Oratorios by Ferenc Liszt
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Interdisciplinary Studies in Musicology Interdisciplinary Studies in Musicology 13,2013 © PTPN & Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, Poznań 2013 JOANNA SUBEL Department of Musicology, University of Wroclaw Theatrical drama and Franciscan simplicity in oratorios by Ferenc Liszt ABSTRACT: The works of Ferenc Liszt are both influenced by the romantic mood and various oppos­ ing trends of the church music of his era. In his oratorios Die Legende von der heiligen Elisabeth and Christus, as well as in the unfinished St Stanislaus, one may discern such features as drama, mysti­ cism, universalism, and national elements. In these vocal-instrumental works the composer makes use of two languages, German and Latin, as well as of various types of the archaisms such as quotations from Gregorian melodies. In Liszt’s compositions, choral monodies become ‘motifs’ - the recurring themes which appear frequently and in a variety of versions. Dramatic expression and lyricism are particularly dominant in St Elisabeth. The Christus oratorio, which resembles a misterium, because of the absence of a libretto and the use of liturgical texts, is characterised by the abundance of harmonic solutions. The oratorios reveal both the composer’s uncommon piety and his striving to reform the church music of his times. KEYWORDS: Ferenc Liszt, oratorio, Die Legende von der heiligen Elisabeth, Christus, St Stanislaus Ferenc Liszt’s vocal-and-instrumental works remain almost unknown in Poland. His art songs are not performed and his oratorio works are presented extremely rarely, usually as part of festival programmes.

For neither before Thee was any like unto Thee, nor shall there be any after. Daughters of Jerusalem, why marvel ye at me? The thing which ye behold is a divine mystery. Antiphon for Christmas Eve MESSIAH Messiah is a biblical oratorio by George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) for SATB soloists, SATB chorus, orchestra and continuo. It was written during a three-week period in August/September 1741, and given its first performance in Dublin, on April 13th 1742 at the New Music Hall in Fishamble Street. The first London performance was a year later in Covent Garden at Easter in 1743. Originally intended as an Easter offering, Messiah these days is as bound up with Christmas as tinsel and mince pies. It is one of only two oratorios by Handel where the entire text is taken from the bible, the other being Israel in Egypt, written in 1739.

  • Marco Polo – the Label of Discovery
    Marco Polo – The Label of Discovery Doubt was expressed by his contemporaries as to the truth of Marco Polo’s account of his years at the court of the Mongol Emperor of China. For some he was known as a man of a million lies, and one recent scholar has plausibly suggested that the account of his travels was a fiction inspired by a family dispute. There is, though, no doubt about the musical treasures daily uncovered by the Marco Polo record label. To paraphrase Marco Polo himself: All people who wish to know the varied music of men and the peculiarities of the various regions of the world, buy these recordings and listen with open ears. The original concept of the Marco Polo label was to bring to listeners unknown compositions by well-known composers. There was, at the same time, an ambition to bring the East to the West. Since then there have been many changes in public taste and in the availability of recorded music. Composers once little known are now easily available in recordings. Marco Polo, in consequence, has set out on further adventures of discovery and exploration. One early field of exploration lay in the work of later Romantic composers, whose turn has now come again. In addition to pioneering recordings of the operas of Franz Schreker, Der ferne Klang (The Distant Sound), Die Gezeichneten (The Marked Ones) and Die Flammen (The Flames), were three operas by Wagner’s son, Siegfried. Der Bärenhäuter (The Man in the Bear’s Skin), Banadietrich and Schwarzschwanenreich (The Kingdom of the Black Swan) explore a mysterious medieval world of German legend in a musical language more akin to that of his teacher Humperdinck than to that of his father.

  • Liszt and Christus: Reactionary Romanticism
    LISZT AND CHRISTUS: REACTIONARY ROMANTICISM A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Robert Pegg May 2020 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Maurice Wright, Advisory Chair, Music Studies Dr. Michael Klein, Music Studies Dr. Paul Rardin, Choral Activities Dr. Christine Anderson, Voice and Opera, external member © Copyright 2020 by Robert Pegg All Rights Reserved € ii ABSTRACT This dissertation seeks to examine the historical context of Franz Lizt’s oratorio Christus and explore its obscurity. Chapter 1 makes note of the much greater familiarity of other choral works of the Romantic period, and observes critics’ and scholars’ recognition (or lack thereof) of Liszt’s religiosity. Chapter 2 discusses Liszt’s father Adam, his religious and musical experiences, and his influence on the young Franz. Chapter 3 explores Liszt’s early adulthood in Paris, particularly with respect to his intellectual growth. Special attention is given to François-René, vicomte de Chateaubriand and the Abbé Félicité de Lamennais, and the latter’s papal condemnation. After Chapter 4 briefly chronicles Liszt’s artistic achievements in Weimar and its ramifications for the rest of his work, Chapter 5 examines theological trends in the nineteenth century, as exemplified by David Friedrich Strauss, and the Catholic Church’s rejection of such novelties. The writings of Charles Rosen aid in decribing the possible musical ramifications of modern theology. Chapter 6 takes stock of the movements for renewal in Catholic music, especially the work of Prosper Gueranger and his fellow Benedictine monks of Solesmes, France, and of the Society of Saint Cecilia in Germany.

  • Nativity of Jesus
    Nativity of Jesus For other uses, see Nativity of Jesus (disambiguation). will of God, undoing the damage caused by the fall of The nativity of Jesus or birth of Jesus is described the first man, Adam. The artistic depiction of the na- tivity has been an important subject for Christian artists since the 4th century. Since the 13th century, the nativity scene has emphasized the humility of Jesus and promoted a more tender image of him, as a major turning point from the early “Lord and Master” image, which has had an effect on the basic approaches of Christian pastoral ministry.[2][3][4] The nativity plays a major role in the Christian liturgical year. Christian congregations of the Western tradition (including the Catholic Church, the Anglican Commu- nion, and many Protestants) begin observing the season of Advent four Sundays before Christmas, the traditional feast-day of his birth, which falls on December 25. Chris- tians of the Eastern Orthodox Church observe a similar season called the "Nativity Fast" during the forty days leading up to Christmas, which for them falls on January Adoration of the Shepherds by Gerard van Honthorst, 1622 7 as a result of Orthodox churches continuing to follow the Julian calendar, rather than the modern day Gregorian calendar.[5] 1 Date of birth See also: Date of birth of Jesus of Nazareth and Chronology of Jesus § Historical_birth_date_of_Jesus The date of birth for Jesus of Nazareth is not stated in the gospels or in any secular text, but most scholars assume a date of birth between 6 BC and 4 BC.[6] The historical evidence is too ambiguous to allow a definitive dating,[7] but the date is estimated through two different approaches - one by analyzing references to known historical events mentioned in the Nativity accounts in the Gospels of Luke and Matthew, and the second by working backwards from the estimation of the start of the ministry of Jesus.[8][9] Medieval miniature painting of the Nativity by the Master of 2 Place of birth Vyšší Brod, c.

  • Chronology of Jesus' Life
    The Chronology of Jesus’ Life A Detailed and Dated Timeline of the Life and Ministry of Jesus Christ ABSTRACT: This chronology uses a framework of nine signs in the heavens to help date the birth, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus. The Passover/Exodus event forms a typology for Jesus’ life.1 It continues to sequence and date precisely the events of Jesus’ life. Understanding the phrase in the second-first Sabbath (Luke 6:1 Douay), revealed that Jesus’ public ministry was two years in duration. It also revealed that Jesus did many Passover related actions and teachings, at times and places other than at Passover in Jerusalem. Instead, He did them around Passover in the second month and around the solar Passover. Much as Dr. Jaubert proposed the solar Passover as the date for the Last Supper. The gospel of Matthew was determined to be in sequential chronological order. These insights helped link the vast majority of Jesus’ ministry to the few weeks of these Passover events. It was further revealed that there were a few similar events that occurred a month before Passover in the month of Adar. The order and character of the events strengthen and even forces the dates of Jesus’ actions and teaching. The Exodus and first Passover form the plot for Jesus’ life. Accurately chronicling Jesus’ entire ministry gives a clearer picture and more insight into Jesus and God’s plan, work, and ways. This Passover order and structure can aid one to remember the details and order of the events of Jesus’ ministry.

  • Crucifixion of Jesus
    Crucifixion of Jesus The crucifixion of Jesus occurred in 1st-century Judea, most likely in either AD 30 or AD 33. Jesus' crucifixion is described in the four canonical gospels, referred to in the New Crucifixion of Jesus Testament epistles, attested to by other ancient sources, and is established as a historical event confirmed by non-Christian sources,[1] although there is no consensus among historians on the exact details.[2][3][4] According to the canonical gospels, Jesus was arrested and tried by the Sanhedrin, and then sentenced by Pontius Pilate to be scourged, and finally crucified by the Romans.[5][6][7][8] Jesus was stripped of his clothing and offered vinegar mixed with myrrh or gall (likely posca[9]), to drink after saying "I am thirsty". He was then hung between two convicted thieves and, according to the Gospel of Mark, died by the 9th hour of the day (at around 3:00 p.m.). During this time, the soldiers affixed a sign to the top of the cross stating "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews" which, according to the Gospel of John (John 19:20), was written in three languages (Hebrew, Latin, and Greek). They then divided his garments among themselves and cast lots for his seamless robe, according to the Gospel of John. According to the Gospel of John, after Jesus' death, one soldier (named in extra-Biblical tradition as Longinus) pierced his side with a spear to be certain that he had died, then blood and water gushed from the wound. The Bible describes seven statements that Jesus made while he was on the cross, as well as several supernatural events that occurred.

  • Salvation in Luke: the Impact of Allusions to the Cult on His Soteriology
    Salvation in Luke: the impact of allusions to the cult on his soteriology by Anthony John Talbot A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS BY RESEARCH Department of Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham December 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This thesis examines possible allusions to the cult in Luke and indicates their potential impact on his soteriology. Various Jewish concepts of ‘salvation’ current in Luke’s day are discussed. This is followed by a critical examination of the Nazareth pericope (Lk 4.16-30) and the Emmaus encounter (Lk 24.13-35), as possible allusions to the Jubilee, and that Jesus might be presented as the fulfilment of the prophetic redemption contained therein. The sabbath-day healings are considered as possible indications that Luke’s Jesus deliberately healed on the sabbath in order that the sick might, being healed, receive shalom. Indications that Luke and his contemporaries may have understood the consecration of the sabbath in Genesis to be, at least partly, a celebration of shalom as the work of creation, is presented as possible evidence that the healing ministry of Jesus in Luke was fulfilling the purpose of the Temple cult (the ritual re-creation of Edenic shalom), and that Jesus applied to himself the exemption from sabbath-day rest granted to the Temple priests.
