GEORG FRIEDRICH HAENDEL Salomon, oratorio en trois actes (Londres, 1749) RIAS Kammerchor, Daniel Reuss
2h35

HMY2921949.50
Extrait: No.5 Accompagnato. Solomon Almighty pow'r
C’est à l'âge de 63 ans que Haendel composa Salomon, l’un de ses derniers chefs-d’œuvre. Cet oratorio monumental décrit l’apogée du roi biblique à travers les trois grands moments de sa vie – la construction du temple, le célèbre jugement et la visite de la reine de Saba. Avec un sens dramatique plus affûté que jamais, le compositeur n'hésitait pas à mêler réflexion politique et patriotique à l'exaltation de l’amour charnel et à la célébration des richesses terrestres. Symbiose inédite entre la musique et la langue anglaise selon Winton Dean, l'ouvrage engendra en 1749 de sérieuses difficultés financières à cause de ses effectifs exceptionnels – mais il trouve aujourd'hui sous la baguette de Daniel Reuss des interprètes totalement acquis à sa noble cause !
