Confessions Of Time (1999) for Recitation, Double SATB Choir, 2 Pianos, 3 Percussions and 4 Double Basses by Andy Pape. Texts about time by Peter Hoegh and Augustinus Programnote: Jeg har valgt at basere Confessions of Time pa to forskellige tekster, der begge handler om tiden. En moderne tekst hentet fra Peter Hoegs De maske egnede og en gammel tekst, som jeg har fundet i Augustins Bekendelser, skrevet i arene 397-401 e.Kr. Selv om de er skrevet med ca. 1600 ars mellemrum, siger de naesten det samme. Augustins tekst har jeg villet give et skaer af noget gammelt og fjernt, og derfor synges den pa latin (det sprog som Augustin ogsa skrev pa). I kontrast hertil reciteres - altsa tales - Peter Hoegs tekst, som er pa dansk og meget ligefrem og nutidens tekster far saledes lov til at belyse hinanden. Bade Peter Hoeg og Augustin taler om, hvad evigheden er, hvad tid er. Et sporgsmal som jeg finder er vigtigt at standse op og taenke over i disse tider, hvor vi har sa travlt med at fa tiden til at ga, som om tiden er noget, der bare skal overstas. Men dermed glemmer vi nu'et. Det er en almindelig opfattelse at evigheden er det at leve evigt, for altid. Men Peter Hoeg og Augustin siger begge at evigheden er tiden her og nu - det nu, som hele tiden bliver til fortid, og som derfor er sa svaer at indfange. Min hensigt med vaerket har vaeret at belyse tiden gennem musikken, hvilket pa en gang er et banalt og halsbraekkende projekt for en komponist. Banalt fordi musik er tid, og halsbraekkende fordi det r umuligt at give et klart svar pa, hvad tid er, fordi vi - og musikken - lever i tiden: det svarer til at sporge en fisk om, hvad vand er. Og derfor er dette vaerk ogsa et eksperiment.Musikalsk har jeg haft den ambition (som er frygtelig farlig for en komponist) at saette tiden i sta gennem musikken og prove at abne et tidsrum, hvor der ikke sker noget. Hvor det drejer sig om et her og nu, og hvor tiden opleves som noget andet end 'klokketiden'. Tiden er jo noget vi oplever med vores bevidsthed: det viser sig tydeligt hos hjerneskadede, der ikke kan skelne mellem en fortid og en nutid og en fremtid. Indimellem har jeg faet den fornemmelse, at tiden er gaet hurtigere, end hvad faktisk er tilfaeldet, nar jeg har hort et stykke musik - noget jeg tror mange vil kunne nikke genkendende til: nar det sker, er det faktisk fordi, tiden er gaet i sta.

The Reformation Symphony was composed in 1830 for the 300th anniversary of the Confessio Augustana, the founding of the Lutheran confession of faith. In the fourth movement, Mendelssohn quotes, elaborates and varies artfully the Luther-chorale Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott [God is our fortress], erecting a musical monument to the reformer Martin Luther. After an initial confl icting reception, the Reformation Symphony meanwhile is established fi rmly in the concert repertoire. EB 8058 is intended for performances with organ. It can also be used for the preparation of the chorus and soloists for performances with orchestra.

With regard to the anniversary of the Reformation in 2017, this version for solos, choir and organ by Torsten Sterzik originated to pave the Reformation Symphony's way into the church as well, restoring the text to Luther's chorale in the fourth movement and additionally including the third movement, its arioso solos being sung by a soprano and a tenor solo.

With his opera Hamlet, which premiered in Glyndebourne in 2017, the composer Brett Dean added a new, modern analysis to the certainly numerous artistic ones of the famous subject - with enormous success, as the press reviews and many subsequent stage productions attested. The composer's and his librettist Matthew Jocelyn's fruitful examination of Shakespeare's text material yielded both the full-length opera and several concertante “by-products”: And once I played Ophelia for soprano and string quartet, From Melodious Lay, an orchestral poem with solo soprano and solo tenor, Confessio for solo bass clarinet, and the suite Gertrude Fragments for mezzo-soprano and guitar. The five miniatures, with their suitably intimate, dark instrumentation, throw light on various aspects of Hamlet's mother, who is both a guilty and a tragic, helpless figure.

A Programmatic Declaration of BeliefFelix Mendelssohn Bartholdy composed his Reformation Symphony for the celebrations marking the 300th anniversary of the Confessio Augustana, the Protestant declaration of faith. Owing to various and only partially explained reasons, there was no performance in 1830, the year in question; it was only two years later that the composer conducted the premiere of his work, now heavily revised, in Berlin. There was only one more performance in Mendelssohn's lifetime, this one conducted by Julius Rietz in Dusseldorf; the composer had since distanced himself from his opus.Conceived for the concert hall, the symphony formulates its theological references through the integration of various motives. This occurs in the finale, for example, in which Mendelssohn quotes the Luther chorale Ein feste Burg in the flute, from where it builds up to a triumphant principal theme. The strong extra-musical aspect must have been one of the reasons for the composer's later avoidance of this score, especially since Mendelssohn was becoming increasingly skeptical about explicitly programmatic music in the instrumental domain. Next to the Dusseldorf performance material of 1837, two scribal copies have been examined for the first time; they transmit the main stages of the version of 1830.

UPC: 785147820604. English. Text Source: Based on Confessions of St. Augustine. Text by Tony Alonso.

With a text based on Confessions of St. Augustine, this song of comfort extols the surety of God’s love for us. Appropriate for times of reflection or meditation, this moving work sings of the peace found when we allow our restless hearts to find a home in God. While effective with piano and choir alone, the addition of string quartet, flute, and horn in F adds depth and enhances the legato line of the melody. For cantor or soloist. Instrument parts are optional.

Mendelssohn's ConfessionThe Reformation Symphony, misleadingly numbered posthumously as 5 by its publishers, was Mendelssohn's first confrontation with the large symphonic form in Beethoven's wake. Linking it conceptually with the 300th anniversary of the Augsburg Confession in 1830 seems to have first occurred late in the progress of its composition, yet the premiere did not take place until 1832 and ultimately even enabled the composer to distance himself completely from his work and its concept. Thanks to access to a new source [or, ... new access to sources... or ...new access to a source...?], this edition can now finally refute the legend that a separate original or early version of the symphony once existed.
